The vintage radiators from this UK company look lovely and definitely no need to radiator covers. https://www.vintagecastironradiators.co.uk/

Also, is Cuz going to do different custom designs for every radiator? Are they going to be different design styles or all based on art deco? What a waste of time, resources and money.

She hired a carpenter. Umbalines boyfriend. Seriously what does her Cuz do???? And the Patreons just keep the money pouring in
Of course she had to hire a carpenter, he's a normal carpenter whereas Armoire is a MASTER CARPENTER... There are lots of things that are beneath Armoire to do. So he does nothing but fiddle. Much like the rest of them.
At least Phillipa is actively doing something, it's nails look lovely

Perhaps Fanny is embalmed. Don't they remove your brain during the process?

Compare what Chateau de la Ferte accomplished in 2022 vs. Fanny in the past 18 years.
Restoration requires an extended focus OUTSIDE one’s self. Look at the way the workers at Chateau de la Ferte are handling those materials, so thoughtfully and with so much caring.

I also noticed whenever Phi made a suggestion for the cover, they cut out Armoir's response. But you could already tell from the tone that he was about to disagree. Not surprised that the end result looked very different from what they had discussed.

I was kinda surprised to hear that they are still planning to open the B&B this year with all the structural issues of the house. I know this is never going to happen, but with the money accumulated through the patreon funds, SJ should just do a "year of complete renovation" where they fix all those big problems at the same time, which would actually be interesting content to watch.

I agree. I been watching Billy and it is really refreshing to see someone say they are going to do something, go buy what they need to do it, and get it done. All of her talk of doing things and she never gets anything done. With all of the money she’s been given she could have made fantastic improvements that would have led to money making activities that would have enabled her to wonderful private rooms away from guests. She has totally blown it.

Billy talked about the oak windows for the convent kitchen. Roughly €25000 x 6. Uses a local French company. He has the mean and he isn’t skimping on quality I actually like that.

I’m enjoying Billy’s videos, especially with Sean who has added some quality to his vlogging.

Pretty sure it’s €25,000 in total, not for each window..

Billy said they were looking at €3,000 for each window, but then add on fitting, €450 extra for oak, tax, etc and it comes to roughly €25k, but he was referring to the total figure for that.

It would have been a total of €18k without those added on so increased the price by €7k, rather than by €132k!

it's rather optimistic to assume that the accumulated Patreon funds are still in the account. I'm beginning to suspect that they aren't which could explain the delays in getting anything done. I wonder if they will be used to pay taxes, fines etc? We all need to remember what and who we're dealing with here.

Ella I agree 100%....Chloe I think you are really reaching and stretching things a bit hereYou seem to be here to stir the same 🫕 as Matthias IMPO
I’m so far behind but I’m desperate to catch up to see if you all sussed Becckys identity on here. If you did I 100% agree with you.

NO! That was a joke!
Some idiot made the comment that she and her co-commenting buddies would be happy to cover Matthias's donation if SJ would kick him off as a patreon. So in SJ's voice I made the crack that he gave $500...
Sorry for confusion
No confusion really, but thanks for pointing out. However, my point still stands. If a top tier patreon pays 100$ per month and a dozen, or more, get pissed off with this new wave of attacking that's money gone forever. I sure as hell wouldn't stick around to have those kind of comments slung at me. I'd give myself a jolly good talking to for being so stupid then go out and splurge on something for me

Carpenter or handyman? If he’s a carpenter, could this be a hint that Cuz is getting restless?

Yep. Phillip is in the devaluation stage.
God. I hope it's not a long drawn out thing. Make it quick, like pulling off a well stuck plaster. No one deserves to suffer (us not phyll-arse. Phyll-arse should definately suffer for all the shit we've had to put up with from him) a long drawn out departure. In the words of Miranda Priestly - do it now.
