What the Hell is Uncle holding up? The elastic from his knickers?
Eww...

Yup! Those two amateurs tied the cabbage rolls with butcher twine! It's lucky neither of them is Polish nor Ukrainian. No self-respecting Eastern European cook would tie up golubtsy like that!

what's wrong with saying hence and whilst? I use them all the time. It's the sign of a good education and shows that you have a good grasp of the English language and I for one won't be apologizing for that. No way Pedro!

I think he wants to move to France but something is stopping him.
Nothing a little Pareon cash won’t fix! Just kidding…I agree with you about Alexander. Quirky, but I don’t know…he’s one of the very few you don’t just want to “smack!”…yet!

And Ollie . . . at the end your jumper is inside out with the care instruction label showing.

a lott of gay people suffer with mental health...because of bullying in childhood..problems with family...work..a lott of things..i am still involved in the COC ..its an organisation in The Netherlands who fight for the rights of gays and more thats connected to it nowadays...i wont bother you with the whole lott..a lott of people are very skilled..but very damaged...when i see Alexander ending up in France in those places i think...Aleaxander why?? just go your own way...create a fanbase on insta or Yt...and do it yourself...he can do it...but he has to grab his guts together..stop whining...and gets things done..i also was bullied in highschool when people thought i was gay...even before i myself realized it..kids can be very cruel..i am mentally very strong..many gays are not..come on Alexander you can do it..dont rely on others...do it yourselve!!

Since Phyllis does most of the editing for Stephanie now, to make himself somewhat rather useful, I have a sneaky feeling that he also comes up with terrible titles, and finds ways to make the vlogs about him.

I think there was a brief period where a newbie Tattler was using “whilst” and it stirred up some speculation that it was Staph because she’d been using it in vlogs or comments. Ever since various posters have used more formal wording occasionally as a sort of spit in the eye of Stephony and her flying monkeys.

I personally really like Alexander. Simply because he is an extremely polite, well brought up young man, with a particular skill-set, be that within fabric, curtain making or interior design. AND, he has a good SOH too once he feels comfortable within any particular setting.
Having said all the above, he would drive me crazy as I imagine that he takes an absolute "age" to decide and finalise his attire choices each morning. Not my problem, obviously!
Although, imho, just extremely shy! Nothing bad there then!

For me, personally, if I owned a large estate like Lie Lande, I would feel an obligation to give back to the local community. I don’t mean charity…I would want to do everything I could to make the property commercially viable so that visitors and tourists are drawn to the area and other businesses. Especially if it’s in the middle of nowhere. It could be mutually beneficial and lucrative for everyone involved. Fanny’s been there for over 16 years and I think the locals barely know her. Hopefully Billy keeps that in mind with the convent.

I volunteer with our local LGBTQ youth group, I’m also a member of the senior group. The two organizations have several events together throughout the year. You’re so right that members of the community have suffered great abuse. Fortunately things have improved, though there’s much more to accomplish. I too was bullied for being a strange and fey child. I was also very pretty as a boy, which brought it’s own unwelcome attentions. The volunteering I do is just the way I can give back to my chosen family and community. I think it helps for people to realize they are not alone.

Is that Snorts’ hair they just found in the food?
I thought it was Stephs extension!

The Coalport/ Wedgwood china…. Confusing because they became one company!

The comments about faux friends gifting Fanny in a sort of worshiping way is surely also like the adoring fans sending her gifts in grabeau?

Camillas eyebrows will meet her hairline if she has any more Botox!

NEWSFLASH… Is ..Armoury in Paris still,arranging wedding rings and plans? Nattys Mother and Grandma with him perhaps? I think a wedding…. Is on the horizon . Then it will be off to SA asap for them all except Pavlina.

Fanny is not noble...she doesnt have a clue how estates support the local community...have to say most of those chateaux byers/grifters dont have a clue..they dont understand that there is much to gain if you get invloved in the local comunnity..it works both ways...but hey..who i am to teach them..

"Hello from Lalande lovely people! Tonight’s video will be premiering later than usual - probably in about two hour’s time, because tonight we were filming during ‘Ukrainian Hour’, when we turned our lights off in solidarity with the people of Ukraine who are going without electricity."

Just like his ultimate man crush, Michael Petherick, that dude Alexander is lost.

He showed up at a stranger's chateau to help sew curtains, presenting himself as a successful couturier who specializes in Empire-style bridal couture but only has two sample creations on his social media. After almost two years his pursuit of Michael led nowhere, and now he drifts around his very small world called the chateauverse. If he loves France so much, what's keeping him from finding a suitable job in Paris?
