Where to start after watching CD -

Snorty
  • remove your damn beanie at the dinner table - you have no manners!!!
  • whilst I admit Snorty & a fruit bowl make sense together, why are you continuing to 'decorate' Mummy's apt - stay the $uck out of it!!! Also, that fruit bowl was 1980's ceramic ware - nothing special
  • accompanying the guests to Emaus is just a cover for Snorty to justify his shopping addiction. No different than an alcoholic hosting a celebration on some lame pretext and using it as an excuse to have booze around
Amuary
  • at this rate Amury & Natti are gone once B&B season finishes. You can see in their faces both Natti & Cuz are done. Say what you will, I believe Natti & Amury care for each other and Natti doesn't like to see how Fanny continues to mistreat her Cuz
  • Amury didn't even turn to look at Fanny or acknowledge her when she walked out to the woods
  • if I were Amuay I'd move my workshop off site - all the way back to England
  • add making a new Redwood Garden Gate (which is desperately needed) to the jobs on Amuary's ever increasing task list
  • why weren't the volunteers & Snorty helping Amuary clear the stables? Sorting flowers & drinking tea instead of shifting crap out of the stables
Renovation & Decoration
  • heating - I know it's taking a while, but that should have been built into the schedule. Fanny had no business renting out half-finished rooms which are still in a state of disrepair
  • they are just making work for themselves - double, tripling the amount of time needed to complete projects. Reinstall the tackroom kitchen in a make-shift manner, just to pull it out again next week. The definition of incompetent fools.
  • where is Kevin??? Has he downed tools and walked offsite?
  • Bonne Maman - why did Fanny only fix the bathroom instead of redecorate the entire space - the walls in that bedroom are in an atrocious state.
  • Wallpaper - I quite like wallpaper, but Fanny has it installed on every bloody wall. There is no place to rest your eye and every room clashes with the next. I'd have an ocular migraine staying in that dump!
  • the Little Green wallpaper is expensive, but Fanny only used 1/2 of each strip because she started at a 3' dado line. The entire top half of each strip is cut off and tossed away. Again, Fanny has chosen the wrong wallpaper for the room
  • the wallpaper was a huge waste of money, but don't worry because Snorty purchased used stemware for only 50 cents a piece.
Fanny
  • your botox isn't holding up too well, but don't worry darling, you'll be back in London very soon.
  • measuring around the bathroom with a 6" ruler - what a silly woman (or were you trying to tell us that Snorty doesn't measure up?!?)
Mummy
  • do yourself a favour and stay in South Africa

No question Amaury is a treasure and God-sent. I just hope he doesn't burn out. Talent like his is rare. It would be a shame to exhaust him.

Surely you could hire people to toss garbage - poor Amaury skills are needed elsewhere….he’s such an asset

Why waste a Master Carpenter filling a dumpster. Anyone else there could have loaded that lightweight stuff into the dumpster. If I employed Amaury I would take good care of him and not use him for handyman/janitorial work. He would not be easy to replace.

Children would prefer chicken nuggets or spaghetti
Every child I know loves macaroni & cheese, too…and it’s so easy to make. As often as the cook has to cater to all of PhiPhi’s food dislikes…oh, I’m sorry…”allergies”….and all of the quirks and special food requests of everyone who lives at the dump, how hard would it be to make a dish for the kids they would enjoy? Instead, they get some weird duck entree and a dessert that looks like a stupid potato with eyes! 🙄😳 What a way to make kids hate you! 😆 I hope they didn’t try to pick a damn tulip!

Ok, so when Philip & the bnb guests all left for Emmaus, did they all walk, drive separate cars or did Philip drive them in the chateau’s illegal red van?
I thought they walked, which is why the one guest had his tartan walking stick.

My view from earlier this evening…I love the beach!

I noticed that and couldn’t believe that snorts took one of them to at as well. Are hard boiled eggs a French thing for breakfast. I’ve not noticed them in hotels before.
Snorts looked like a rat grabbing bread off the table and running off to eat it!

IMG_5166.gif


IMG_5167.jpeg


While the guests were seated and eating breakfast, Snorts hovers by the window, in his beanie and jacket, stuffing a croissant in his face. Rude.

Honestly, why go to all the trouble of trying to make the farmhouse look like some weird version of Versailles, buying all the hundreds of pieces of china, crystal, and cutlery, and setting up a “fancy” breakfast if the host is going to dress like he just came from the field. Wearing a hat inside the house. Standing over the guests while eating…I would have felt uncomfortable. I guess everyone was going for a walk after breakfast, so that explains his outfit. But still, Snorts just “plays” as if he’s sophisticated when I don’t think he really has a clue.

By all means, come and great your guests and ensure breakfast service meets their needs, but it's completely unacceptable behaviour for a B&B host to stand there stuffing food in their face in front of the guests.

But sadly Fanny's paying guests are under the false impression that they're dear friends all living together in the shitoo and sharing meals & entertainment. These visitors are deluded into believing they're a welcome part of the false live, love, laugh narrative Fanny continues to perpetuate. These guests seem to forget they're paying dearly for the privilege of dining with Fanny & Snorty and sleeping in a unfinished room in a derelict building.

If Fanny bumped into these guests in an airport she probably wouldn't recognize them, and if she did, she'd quickly turn and walk the other way to avoid them. Fanny would be shocked and none to happy to discover they got upgraded too. Even better if they were already travelling first class and Fanny was stuck back in economy!

I really don’t like how Stephanie tries to make her bnb seem like it’s luxury accommodations. It’s not. I think 100% of the people come because they are cd super fans, not because of its 5 star reputation. They come to be part of the faux happiness and chateau life she craps out. I would imagine they are all disappointed to be kept at arms length and barely tolerated, except maybe for the few minutes of their stay if it suits Stephanie’s needs. I think most of these people would love to be put to work helping out around Lalande. Instead they are nickel and dimed to death. “Culture” shoved down their throats. Would it really impress me that someone would play a few songs on a dusty piano? Maybe it’s nice for a few minutes, but shouldn’t be the highlight of any trip. Is the food any good? Maybe it’s alright sometimes? Maria seems like she tries. I’m sure it’s not better than most restaurants in the area and its more expensive. It’s definitely not clean, no matter how much Steph pretends it is. Is it even safe? Not according to Steph. If one side of my house was possibly going to collapse, I wouldn’t stay in the other side or have paying guests.🤷‍♀️

Well, ladies and gentlemen (I use the term loosely 😆)…I just entered the great state of Tennessee (that’s the place whose name sounds like an Italian seasoning @HalcyonOrganic 😄). I’m on my way to Florida and looking forward to some time on the beach. Catching a flight and will be there in a few hours. I’ll be joining you in the VIP lounge this evening from the Sunshine State! 🍊

Not only should Squirrel be cleaning up that crap but Fanny should have stuck her camera where the sun don't shine and starting helping too.
I hope Amaury has a look at himself cleaning their crap up and says to himself "I am out of here!!!"....... I would go back to the UK Bun Boy.
Its not going to end well for Amaury.

As always ComtesseRose - a big thank you 💋

I spent the Covid years in Italy. Not glamorous country living. We relocated for work reasons and then Covid hit - really set us back financially and my now teen daughter mentally. Anyhooooo.... I would try to capitalize on the good. One was getting amazing one-in-a-lifetime pricing on places and excursions as Italy was closed to everyone else in the world. It was glorious in that sense. Spent a few days in Tuscany near Montepulciano at a little B&B (had a pool!!!). Owners from Florida (I see you FL tattlers 😍). THIS was breakfast o.m.g. And it was from the garden, hosts made it all.

Amaury moved out, instead of moving his equipment to the stables I would suggest he rents a place to set up his carpentry workshop.
Just step by in the morning take the measurements for whatever and then get back to the shittoo when he has finished the product. Surely there are more people in need in the region for his skills. Not only will he make more money, but it will keep him sane.

with regards to Dan he has 144K subscribers, his views are surpassing SJ's (his latest flogs: 147K, 153K, 130K vs 125k, 146k, 127k (yesterdays is at 62K at 9 hours. TCD 66K views in 11 hours) Youtube is heavily recommending his channel and people are subscribing to his channel. by the end (give or take) of the year if he keeps up with this pace he will surpass the 75M views.

SJ will get nasty when this happens. especially if it's effecting her patreon. Because of this I wondered if she did the bathroom in Bonne mama to draw the viewers back in. In a way saying see, I do work and get things done in my heap of rocks. Because Bonne mama bathroom wasn't written in the stars, but suddenly it popped up.

Wow Fanny really has no genuine emotion the absolute tastelessness of titling her grab fashion show so soon after MM is really so insensitive.


I also for the first time took a look at Stephanie Jarvis instagram pre Chateau Diaries and it shows she mostly travelled:Istanbul, Portugal, South Africa, Zanzibar, America and lived in London a lot. The other tell is a post with her in a yellow coat and Gerry in a yellow jumper where she refers to him as "my brother". She also shops a lot for designer clothes bed heads mirrors etc. What is also abundantly clear is she lived to party and did indeed party a lot. Christmas didn't used to be a wholesome affair it was a 10 day bender with every night themed and none of the older generation in sight. What is also clear is she was close with Ruthie what happened there? Only one post of Ollie and lots of posing preening and inappropriate clothing. She was a real poser and loved herself loads so not much has changed apart from the party crowd has moved on. I suggest Tattlers take a quick skim through

Definitely never poor, ran the Bn B a few months a year really playing at it. Always front and centre take a look at NYE post from 2017 what a pathetic bunch of posers
What has changed is her ability to pull in a crowd of like-minded hedonists. People move on, have families and careers, even grow up and see the light, but in her case the clock has stopped in that era of partying. The result is a pathetic 50 years old trying to still to be in that time. That's why she will put up with PhiPhi as her escort because he is way younger and she feels that his youth will make her seem youthful. But just look at her physically, she has aged beyond her years in a short amount of time. Because of her vacuous life she is empty and a childish, stupid woman in mid-age is not attractive. The photo of her looking longingly up PhiPhi's nostrils is actually very sad. She is lost.

It’s called ‘Jasper Peony’ by the British wallpaper manufacturer Lewis and Wood. I love it too!

Bonne Maman bathroom

JP ALMOND bench.aa49dac5.jpg


£74.35 per metre
I am not a fan of wallpapered bathrooms. This was also done before she was spending other people's money for bathroom wallpaper? I doubt Lalande has proper bathroom ventilation. Who thinks the kidney shaped, ugly fabric draped vanity table with feathers is necessary? Have they ever hung a real mirror over the sink? Wallpaper on the right, tasteful, wallpaper on the left sad... Ok, I need to stop.

I swear they ALL want to put Snorts forward for the janitor role. They're just being polite.

Thank you for the new thread @ComtesseRose always on top of it all. Many thanks to you all for being your top comment - I believe that may well be my first.
What another shite show at the HMN?! I don’t understand this rainforest cafe wallpaper fascination - they’re all gross. I’ve not seen one wallpaper that’s remotely pleasant installed there. Another project half finished whilst having guests due the next day!!! SJ clearly doesn’t care about things being half finished - it’s a reflection on herself though. Most of us would wait until we had ALL the components to the room in order to make sure everything fits together. Now she needs new curtains because everything clashes - side note: your whole HMN clashes, maybe you weren’t aware???
SJ was barely working throughout the day on the renovations deciding to film her arborists at work and annoying her cousin. If she’d worked harder she might not have had to stay up throughout the night. Then she had the gall to do another sponsored video making light of the fact she does NOTHING. Laying on the kitchen seating - upholstery must reek to high heaven - whilst now a robot does work she could do in half the time. If I get accused of goading here, Our Lady Dame Fanny Four Flues is the undisputed Empress of goading with her omniscient smile to the camera.
That dreadful Phyllis really needs to go. I’m renaming her Phyllis the Deviant.
