I honestly HOPE that Fanny will change this title slide -- "Marie feels sorry for herself and looks out a window." Absolutely disgusting considering that it was only some months ago that Marie was, in her own words, so low that she felt thoughts of self-harm and to heal and return home. She has suffered severe bouts of depression. One suffering from suicidal thoughts and depression doesn't feel sorry for themself; it's much more than that. We all get the blues and sometimes we feel sad but depression, especially long bouts where one feels hopeless is very different. Living in a remote rural area in a foreign country away from family, friends and support networks is already very challenging. Why Marie feels the need to live there is beyond me. She is perhaps not making the best choices. As usually, Fanny thinks she funny and loves to poke fun at others and have a lighthearted take on things...and perhaps Marie is playing along, but this doesn't make it right. It sends the wrong message to those suffering from depression. And, the fact that Fanny couldn't get out of bed for years due to depression following the death of her dad, she should know better.
Frankenfraudie is angry that viewers think that FRK and Snorts are more than friends. There can be only one princess in the castle and that is Frankenfraudie. Frankenfraudie is “ mocking” FRK to put her in her place, which is not princess of the Dump or faux girlfriend of Khillip. Frankenfraudie has to put her down or “ tease” FRK to embarrass her or make fun of her. Frankenfraudie is a mean girl. She is also jealous of the number of viewer comments which note that FRK seems so happy now, like her new dresses, worry about her injured back, gets along so well with phi phi, and fits in perfectly at the Dump, etc, Frankenfraudie’s storyline to bolster up FRK in the videos worked out too well and now Frankenfraudie has to minimize her in some manner so she will be lesser than the 16 years older original little orphan princess

Once again I'm shocked at how little they know about their animals. It's not a big deal for a chicken to walk through the fencing they use. Yes, they do jump... :rolleyes: quite high actually. Plus keep on throwing the feed around and you'll end up with an impressive 🐀 population.
Once we had two chickens (Mr Chicken and Uncle Chicken - named by young nephews who thought they were boy chickens) who disappeared over night. They were free range in the garden then put inside for the nights. I looked and called and they were nowhere to be found. I thought they must have gone down the driveway and either been picked up by someone or found a new home. We were sad but resigned. Then early next morning I heard a car door shut and a car backing out of the driveway, then there they were walking around the house - one was so hungry she flew the length of the house to get to the food. She never flew like that ever again. My mates reckoned they'd caught an Uber and gone into the city clubbing.

Greetings, everyone.

Dick and Angel were on Lorraine this morning promoting their new book. They again dismissed "bullying" claims. You can watch on ITV here: https://www.itv.com/watch/lorraine/1a9360/1a9360a3466. They appear at 10:01.

The Daily Mail's report on it: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowb...ions-bullying-allegations-spiky-volatile.html
Ever since I watched Dick's original TV show but one, in which he was a total asshole around his original nice hippie wife, I have believed these bullying accounts. Something terribly wrong there, his whole family, including now Angel and the children, last I checked, weigh 300 lbs. apiece.

I still think the whole thing is being scripted to fit in with the tv programme he is going to appear in. I think a lot will be revealed when it is shown on tv, and he is banking on the fact that people will rush to look at his vlogs to learn more. More views, more subscribers, more patrons. He is dragging it out to lure in the suckers, just like Fanny did. She kept back reveals for ages because (allegedly) she promised C4 not to show certain things before they were released on tv. It's all a game, a shameful, scripted, disgraceful game purely motivated by arrogance and greed.

I would not be surprised if the tv people paid for the crispy chateau in the first place, and the idiot's apparent total disregard for health & safety is a requirement in his contract to add the element of danger and morbid interest to their story.
I think it's extremely unlikely Channel 4 would part with a dime to buy these buildings -- for liability reasons alone. And, it violates journalism ethics in the extreme, not that Channel 4 ever heard of such scruples.
Scripting the repairs for danger porn, absolutely.
Did we not determine a while back that Channel 4 does not pay Chateau DIY cast members? I can't imagine that they're paying Dan a nickel for his appearances.

Hmmm, Fanny isn’t minding the manor these days. Patron numbers up over 400 yet the $ amounts down by almost $200. Oh dearie me, whatever will she do? Buying patrons is becoming a zero sum game…pity.

What has happened to Snorts locks? He seems to have slipped with the razor too.
---
Dana gives Fanny some olive oil as thanks for the apartment? Has Dana been to the South of France, London or some other apartment.
As the Puffs are not visible and have been keeping a lower profile generally why is their?….. Porsche still at the dump? Fanny’s timings or Fanny has bought the Porsche.
Certainly the chapel restorers porta cabins are MIA . Fanny as we know has already left the dump for Paris and some bedbugs then to Germany where I am fairly certain Snorts is going to get his dream dog. Unless they are getting a tour of Steiff for advent vlog material and he will get a stuffed 🐶

I am nothing like Snorts but I do like Cornish pottery. This vlog I found fascinating.
I watched this, too, this afternoon! I don't always watch their videos, but I always enjoy the ones I do watch, like this one. It's refreshing to watch a vlog and not wonder if someone's not telling the truth, mugging for the camera......

Yes, everyone is getting very excited in the comments section about the possibility of a puppy for PhiPhi.

However, someone does not agree:

Ms Gooder is always right isn't she? :unsure: We shall see.....

My mother gave me a beautiful long bell sleeved sweater/jumper in 1970. I passed it on to my daughter who is still wearing it and it still looks great! At this rate she'll be able to pass it on to her daughter someday.

After watching it I also gotta say it was pretty mean-spirited. The dig came from Maria, but Steph seemed to have no problem joining in. Marie played along, but yeah, it's weird to joke about it considering what she had shared about her struggles in the past. Later in the episode, Maria also pointed out Marie's dress in a somewhat dismissive way. Honestly, it doesn't seem like a healthy environment for Marie.

I found an old girl scout sash I must have been around 12 years old that would make it 52 years old- we wore uniforms to the Scout meetings and the sash was were you would sew your "badges" on it had the troup # sewn on the top and all the little round "badges" in rows under it. you earned the badges completing different projects. There were little pins you earned for like attendance.

isn't the Winter salon the Green room that used to house the pool table? the room with the Daddy wallpaper in it? I did not see them put a log burner in there yet. Maybe I missed it
From 1193! Okay, you win, that's old!

I still have mine as well. Wings from "flying up" from Brownies! That brought back memories as I loved being in the GS.

In honor of the big Halloween Holiday, I've dressed my avatar for Sj and her lovely child boyfriend's favorite hang-out.
When are chopped-up beets and a gaggy wedge of cheese appropriate?
