I like this commentary on Harry and his interviews-- the commentator focuses on narcissistic behavior and lots of things are applicable to SJ too!

The very first places that many Japanese tourists visit in London are Fortnum and Mason; Harrods; Liberty, and all the big designer brands. The Chinese students I taught, on the other hand, were desperate to find Clarke's shoes!
I have always felt exactly the same as you @Freesia54. Certainly nothing to be mocking you for - I stand 100% alongside you.
I used to spend a fair amount on gorgeous fabrics, well made/well cut clothes during my working life, which I am glad to say were all recently donated as I had no further use of them but still looked as good as new, and, even though I had had most for years, never looked old fashioned, just classic! With a slight tweak here or there by a good tailor/dressmaker, Bob's your Uncle - right up to date! 100% never an outer label was ever on view either.
However, I have always loved leather shoes and handbags - they again, will last forever if cared for properly. But, no OTT designer brands, just great handbags/shoes from reputable brands - I did donate most of my really high heeled shoes/boots as I have absolutely no use for those whatsoever either these days.
Today, warm, comfortable indoor clothes.
And, mostly smart casual otherwise. Although I still have plenty of choice for any "special" occasion.
Added to which, the ridiculous amounts of money that "certain" people spend on labels has never impressed me simply because, in my personal experience, those people live entirely on "credit" (that isn't just a 21st century state of mind either) or, like those we all know, are scamming/manipulating others to obtain those items.

Maybe because they have wide feet! I love Clarke's shoes. Whatever fit models they use works for me as do Doc Martens. I guess I have English feet - wide ball, thick toes, fairly high instep and a narrow heel, sounds so attractive, doesn't it!

I totally agree with you.I can't help but think of moths being attracted to light when I think of all the misfits that have come and gone at the HMN. Dan was completely unqualified to be a gardener from the get go. No qualified gardener would have worked for Fanny after talking to her for 10 minutes. She wouldn't have been willing to pay their rates. Instead, she just gets someone that comes along. It's a two way street. Well adjusted, intellectually and emotionally intelligent people just don't get involved with Fanny. This game of prey and predators will not stop. There are so many other people just chomping at the bit to volunteer and work at the HMN. Darwinism?Phil is obviously not prey in my book. He's also a predator.
As an ex-professional, fully trained horticulturally - with certs to prove it - gardener myself. I would have run away from Stephanie Jarvis like my hair was on fire on my first encounter with her.
DTM was never a gardener = he was only, ever looking for local work.
Stephanie Jarvis is just so the type of client that anybody with any knowledge/self awareness would know to avoid and, would be big time trouble in the longer term!
Simply because, she never, ever takes onboard what can ultimately be achieved through advice, as opposed to "what" she wants, regardless of what the location, overall site condition/year round weather and, defo, total lack of overall soil preparation.
At the end of the day, it's all about "right plant, right place" - not some Disneyland idea!
Another Grift.
Do we really want to know what Dan did or did not do behind some pub?
I think he might be on a oil rigg again. Maybe just for a limited time but since he is without the kids he is basically free to go. It's the only way for him since without proper education to make a bit of money in a short period of time and then have time off again to work on his ruin.
I wondered if something like that was happening.Feel Armour,is unhappy of late.
Long ago and in another life, my boss was rude to my mother, in my own home. I was furious and told my boss to apologise and get out. Even though my work could not be faulted, when I turned up for work the next day, I was fired. I sued for unfair dismissal plus damages, and won. The judge agreed with me that an employer is only an employer during the actual hours the employee is being paid. Anything outside those hours, is that person's own time and I was free and justified in telling my boss to get lost.
So, Amaury is free to do what he likes during his down time. Fanny is out of line in ruling otherwise. Besides that, she needs Amaury. I think Dan is a waste of space, but Fanny doesn't get to dictate what happens in his life, nor does she get to decide what Amaury does in his own time. She may gently remind him of his loyalties, but he's in a position of power in the shiteau, even if he doesn't realise it. She needs Amaury more than he needs her. He holds all the cards and could easily, despite having a roof over his head, eating at the communal trough and despite being family, tell Fanny to get lost.
I encourage him to do just that.

You beat me... Or he is cook on a yacht? Probably more suited than Marie and
I think the Pethericks,may help Dan as well.They have supported his vlog.
I agree with you. Dan is defo not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
And, to be fair to him, he never really pretended to be otherwise either!
But, am rather surprised that he chose a holiday in Morocco?
Does anyone else here sense that maybe Dan might be making an announcement about him "coming out" in the not too distant future?
Hell, who really cares, not me! Each to their own has always been my philosophy in life!
And, if that is the case, would make so much more sense about why him and Annalise parted on supposedly "amicable" terms too.
That makes sense,I wonder if he chef's on the rig's that would earn him renovation money.
God forbid the Floor Scrubber hire actual experts using the copious funds she has received through Patreon and YouTube.
Serves them both right for ceding their autonomy for a run down scrap heap and the artificial popularity of a dubious social media world. Harumph!
He's a Chateau Owner now, surely working as a labourer on an Oil Rig would be out of the question?
It actually would be very smart of him to be on an oil rig right now. After all, it's winter, so not a lot of work to be done outside, and let's face it his place is literally all outside. He could be on a rig making serious bank and then come back after it warms up with full pockets. It would be a smart move especially if he's had a falling out with her royal whateverness...
