Should say 'Selmar The Single Dancing Handyman'

 

[Abuela]

Snotty Steph has announced that Nick and Marie will not be coming for Easter. Apparently….. Marie has a big do in America so they will have a family holiday there instead.

She slipped in that 50 people would be coming for Easter. Let's start a "guess" list of who might they be and which ones get the dodgy rooms to play Russian roulette in their 100 star robes!

 

[JackSpratt]

Hello! I'm here... I check in every day or so. I haven't watched any of the flogs in ages, so I get my intel from reading here, but since there's not much going on at the farmhouse even worth remarking about, we are twiddling our thumbs a bit these days. We need another Selmargate! Boy howdy, we were flying through threads! For everyone here recovering from surgeries, illnesses, depression... I hope you are healing. Regarding some of the regulars that have disappeared completely (not even lurking... ) I hope they are ok.

I do have to say that the whole Caroline Gooder thing is bizarre. If she really is some random person who has appointed herself F4F's watchdog, it's truly creepy. She's going to snap when she doesn't feel the love anymore (if she's even feeling it?). I still think it's someone at the shitteau.

Nothing is happening at the farm. Or if there is stuff happening, they really don't want anyone to know about it, which means it can't be good. I am trying to imagine who's going to show up for the Easter antics this year. I do hope Dan Analiese keeps his her kids safely away.

I have to say (callout to @JackSpratt and several others who use this word often) I love "arsed!"

I can't be arsed.
You can't be arsed.
They can't be arsed.
We can't be arsed.

It makes me laugh every time. We just can't be arsed with this nonsense! Have a good day!

You're welcome xxx

Chateau Teapot has some questions for Dan.

My cats all enjoyed the bird song on Teabags vlog tonight. Well done Michael 3/3 keep on track

 

[Luna20]

Michael just released his latest vlog…three in a row! Every Monday…good consistency so far!




And he showcases Florian in his jeans…

Mpk keeping to his schedule of 1 video a week consistently (idealy 2) while doing up the basement kitchen, he'll leave SJ & smugs behind him. He should pay florian to film him. So there will be 2 in a boat.
Oh how the tables turn

 

[ComtesseRose]

And he showed his second favorite tree on the property…an oak tree! Go figure!!! I’ll bet he fornicates with it at night! He loves his oak!

I thought he loved all kinds of hard wood...

What on earth has happened to her face? Her forehead looks really strange tonight. She has two V-shaped wrinkles that stand out like veins, going up from the top of her nose and very prominent under-eye bags. She also looks as if she has had a red chin implant. I start to believe that she really has had cheek implants or some other procedures that are going wrong and affecting her whole face. What will she look like in 10 years' time? She also seems more and more manic. Her behaviour is not normal. She, Natti, with her sycophantic smile, and PJ, who now copies his so-called mistress by saying "That's darling" (such a macho comment!) as they unwrap the nth rabbit, all deserve a punch in the face! Michael, the gift giver, needs to find an aim in life or to develop an interest that will give himself something more useful to spend his time and money on, rather than gift planning; buying and packing up said gifts; composing daft verses, and posting numerous chocolate and stuffed rabbits halfway across the world, over an ocean to a manic, middle-aged millionairess! None of this can be considered as normal, adult behaviour. There are thousands of children who may never be able to have a nutritious meal, let alone a stuffed toy or a chocolate rabbit.

I’m way behind, page 18 of 34. Might have to do some “every other paging” as I like to call it. I took my daughter out for round two of prom dress shopping yesterday & she found her dress. The first one she tried on! Got home, took a few pics of her wearing it with her funky platform Mary Jane heels that she was hoping would work with it, then I got punched in the face, (not literally). Instantly sick, threw up four times and I was done for the day. I have no idea what happened. Maybe it was all those expired shrimp cocktails I ate at brunch? I feel fine today, got mostly caught up on YouTube and put the last coat of paint on my new vestibule (lil hallway) that I am transforming into the world’s smallest art gallery.

Poor unfortunate Fanny…not a hamper from Harrods or Fortnum in sight. Guess she’ll have to buy them herself. Then lie about it in grabeaux. I truly hope the Larkins have cut ties. Could this the beginning of Fanny’s end?!?

I guess l am a bit behind but l was wondering what the status of the Grand Salon is. Have the structural issues been resolved yet? Any progress on the paneling?

Last I recall they were waiting on the structural engineering reports for the salon and chapel. Seems those kind of things move really s-l-o-w ... at least in France.

Yes, you are correct. There are numerous Chateaux that create videos about the remodeling/upgrading with the help of their viewers, generously give to their specific Patreon account. It is certainly a way of joining your favorite creator’s community and pay them for making the stuff you love. Stephanie is very smart running her business, but has a heart of gold and gives back to her Community on line and her Community in France. She is definitely one of a kind and we love her, and Philip. La Lande is home to us all

We look forward to watching your future vlog. Hope you are as smart and talented as Stephanie. She is a hard worker and a beautiful person. She is always kind to everybody and never jealous. Her friends and family are kindhearted too and well behaved. It is a huge job to restore an old chateau in France. It requires knowledge and good taste. Stephanie is half French and she made a lot of historical research on her property, this is why her vlog is so interesting.

Why wouldn't they be happy? That's why they are patrons, to help get the chateau renovated.

@shelagh ward there are many lonely people out there, and giving gifts, or the extra patreon video might make their day. I don’t know. There are a lot of people that can’t travel, and they live through Stephanie’s eyes I guess. Who knows! I find the chateau life interesting, because I used to live in France, I don’t really watch the travelling nor the gifting. But each to their own.

Dan and Annalise appear to have moved the chandelier they were gifted and which was installed in the kitchen . . . to above the the dining table.

That was SHOCKING information - not really.
Who actually thought they'd be there?
