I know how much time it takes to crochet a sweater so I’m remembering that before I critique these knitted ones. The colors and front patterns aren’t terrible, just made for the wrong people. The sleeves are much too wide and the raglan, dropped shoulders do no favors for women imho. I have to watch that when I find a new pattern to try. It doesn’t take a lot to adjust that as you go. I’ve found homemade patterns seem to be notorious for this. Any followers of Fanny who may be here reading this post, NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME KNITTING OR CROCHETING ANYTHING FOR FANNY AGAIN!

I loved it when they showed the women making the tarts and one of them gave their nose a good old wipe . . . so hygienic.

I'm glad you also have the chicken-face portrait. My goodness does she look like she just regretted saying "yes" to swallowing.
But it's named Drama Queen, how can one not see how fitting it is for the little Orphanie.
She's not at as stupid as she'd like us to think... the name and the 'hideousness' is exactly the reason why she purchased it...
………….
I agree, @Freesia54, she knows what she is doing. The ditzy little orphan princess persona is a manipulative act. Snarky Fanny was also mocking Tattle when she gave her last cd video the caption, “ I made an entire video about moving a log burner into the chateau and feeding chickens..
” because we all rip into her rubbish bullshit videos. Stephanfraudie truly believes she is always the smartest person in the room. We see you!!!!!!

Also BP was an exceptional artist. From the age of nine she was drawing insects etc to a tremendously high standard. I believe she kept a blackbird ( yes different times) in a cage so that she was able to study it .
In fact BP was not what she was originally known for.
You may be right about the fascination to extreme for MP.

Fanny buys firstly for herself a tin of sardines of her year , then Phi Phi , had to laugh his tin was the year Dolly the sheep was cloned!
Ps Ollie had to remind her to buy one of his year. It’s all about me me , even with Sardineees

She's so like IJ on that 3rd pic...I think brown eyes are so much warmer than blue, but I guess she's going for the blue eyed blonde look...I'm thinking nearing 50 she should have a complete change of hair colour, probably more in keeping with her natural colouring.
[/QUOTE]
She looks awful when she scrapes the blonde hair right back, really ancient. However, I recently saw a vlog, can't remember which one, when most of her hair appeared dark brown, probably her real colour, and then with her hair scraped back, she looked so much better, years younger. She would be well-advised to let her hair go back to its natural colour. Her complexion would probably look better too. I doubt if she will do that as she likes to be a ditsy little orphan Barbie doll princess.

That item he got on eBay sounds interesting, Snorts will be fuming
nope I keep getting those too
it’s odd isn’t it but perhaps eBay is picking up on Snorts’ taste in general 
So sorry for your loss, thinking of you xx
Teabag is busy on IG today. Clearly trying to take some dosh in. Is it me or is this print just plain boring. He forgot to add a mouse peeping out of the window apparently. Might have helped but still, he can do better than this :

I am so sorry for your loss of your grandmother.
I remember very well the terribly sad days when my amazing grandmothers and a beloved great grandmother died. All of them passed away decades ago but I miss them immensely until this day…
She probably considers that a cheap little frock. She does have some seriously big trotters.
The woman making the custard tarts with ungloved hands then wiping her nose with her hand would put me off custard tarts for life!!
Stephanie loves to debut he new dresses in Patreon videos, likely paid for with tax free Patreon funds, because she will claim they were necessary for her to obtain and wear while she was doing videos “ in furtherance of the goals” of her revised Association purpose.

Holiday from hygiene Fanny probably noticed and felt right at home eating unhygienic custard tarts. Meanwhile, Ollie may have noticed but was so overjoyed to be able to eat custard tarts without ole sugar tits Camilla giving him the stink eye, he happily gobbled down questionably prepared custardy treats.The woman making the custard tarts with ungloved hands then wiping her nose with her hand would put me off custard tarts for life!!

Saving a Building That Saved Hundreds of Children
Château de Chaumont was a sanctuary for young Jews fleeing the Nazis. Now a British contractor is restoring the French mansion, and documenting his renovations online.

@Albee- it is called a "cage", but it is really a large screen room, if that makes sense. It looks like this:
Law does state either you need to have an enclosure or a fence. However, it's more a necessity to keep the bugs, leaves and birds out of the pool (the herons are the worst- lovely, but poo all over the lanai), and to keep the lizards and mosquitos out.
Saving a Building That Saved Hundreds of Children
Château de Chaumont was a sanctuary for young Jews fleeing the Nazis. Now a British contractor is restoring the French mansion, and documenting his renovations online.
www.tabletmag.com
Below are all the excerpted portions of the above June 15, 2023 Tablet magazine (American Jewish online magazine) article containing info about or from Dan:
“The estate fell into disrepair after a fire ravaged the building in the mid-1980s. It sat in shambles until it was sold in 2022 to a British ex-pat named Daniel Preston, a trained chef. For his YouTube channel, “Escape to Rural France,” in which he also renovates a stone farmhouse, Preston filmed a visit to Chaumont in 2021. The self-taught builder has since posted more than 100 videos revealing the painstaking removal of Chaumont’s debris, trees, bees, and bathroom fixtures dangerously perched at perilous heights.”
“Since 2021, Preston’s channel has captured upwards of 34 million views. Rebuilding floors, laying bricks, and solving structural dilemmas have attracted more than 850 Patreon subscribers seeking additional content. Tree surgeons and friends from another channel, “The Château Diaries,” where Preston appeared as a gardener, make cameos. With YouTube ad revenues and “cups of coffee” tips, total monthly income exceeds $8,000.”
“I really wasn’t expecting it to go that far,” said Preston, 33, who also posts on Instagram
“Currently, English TV is profiling Preston’s renovation for a future broadcast. With such a large building, his goal is to remain off-grid to reduce costs. An on-site well yields water and a sponsor provided solar panels, but 40 windows, staircases, wiring, and plumbing require reinstallation, not to mention a roof and turret. Preston expects it may take five years to complete 90% of the work. “I don’t think it will ever be done,” he added.”
“Preston hopes to bring kids back, too. Chaumont hosted a summer camp for disadvantaged children in the 1950s and ’60s. “With all the support we have online, we could support some kind of an academy—for kids who can come for the summer and learn skills,” Preston said.”
“Renovating by day and editing at a nearby Airbnb by night, Preston’s sign-off is a signature YouTube move, a cheeky high-five over the lens. The father of two young boys, he recently separated from their mother, his partner of 14 years, making the project “deeply personal,” Preston said. “I am rescuing the building, but the building is also rescuing me. If I don’t do a video one day, I feel so lost. It’s like keeping a diary but instead of writing down what you do every day … you go back and see the day in the best possible light.”
“Cinematic shots flaunt sweeping aerial views and close-ups of the majestic scenery, the ruin itself, and the machinery reviving it. Thick woods surround the château with a verdant cloak, fitting the metaphor of a storybook legend returning to life. “It really struck me as soon as I saw it,” said Preston, who dates the château to 1886. “It was just magical.”
Interesting takeaways from the article:
Preston expects it may take five years to complete 90% of the work. “I don’t think it will ever be done,” he added.”
The building was rescuing him? No mention of Kat? Hmmmmmmmm……
When was the last time he worked on the farmhouse?

Looks like it may belong to the Seren collection.
Their collection has a very similar design called the MARTHA dress, currently available in terracotta color. They mentioned on their site that the MARTHA dress has returned with some chances to the design.
Martha Dress
Our favourite ‘Martha’ dress is back, with a few stylish adjustments. Now a full length piece, she has 3⁄4 puff sleeves, tie detailing and relaxed a-line shape. The perfect summer day dress. Sizing: One Size 3⁄4 Sleeves A-Line Fit Mid-length Organic Cotton
