Sooooo many questions indeed!
Will Fanny wear white?
Will Snorty wear white?
Will Snorty go porcelain shopping for his stag do?
Will Fanny's first husband give away the bride?
Will Fanny wear the tiara from her first wedding?
Will Potty strip naked and swim in the moat?
Is this Fanny's Hell Mary pass to get back on Ch4 and have the wedding filmed?
Will Fanny buy her wedding dress at Emaus?

I wonder if patrons will find it less compelling to give money to the happy couple rather than to poor struggling Stephanie. Even when Snorts was just her boyfriend, it was always portrayed as all the responsibility falling on her. Now that it will be theirs, will people still want to contribute to two deadbeats instead of one?

OMG such great comments tonight.

Ruby says there has been an engagement announcement in The S A Times, and in England, somewhat novelly, The Financial Times. However, somewhere along the line, with the age difference and all, it has ended up under the heading for Baptisms.

You're sweet to think of me @Pekey. Thank you.

What a hot night. It was still 26C at 10.30, 23C at 4am.
We had planned to come back today and arrived in Melbourne about an hour ago.
There is extreme fire danger warnings for north, north central, central and western Victoria.
Days like today are extremely dangerous.

If we were in Castlemaine on a day like today we do have a fire plan.
We have the Vic Emergency app which we check constantly and we listen for the town siren.
We have already boxed all important documents and precious old photos ready to leave in an emergency.
We'd jump in the car, pick up a friend (he's 82 and doesn't drive) and we would be out. of. there.

I don't think it's a farce at all! Not a popular opinion, I know, but I have never 100% believed this was "for the camera only".
And, as I've also always said, these two deserve each other. Stephanie has not been mesmerized or conned by Philip, IMO. She is exactly who we all say she is and her husband-to- be is just the same.....and he refined his own grift from the master.....his fiance. Ordinarily, I would never make fun of someone's engagement ring, but in this case, I'll make an exception. It is the height of grift for someone like Philip to give her his great-grandmother's ring with the huge stone missing, so all that money she cons out of little old ladies can be used to pay for the stone! If he truly loved her, he would have moved heaven and earth to get that stone replaced. They are, literally, two peas in a pod, cons of the highest order, odd little people, who have found their way to each other. I'm not saying I have the warm and fuzzy feeling I get when I hear about couples I know getting engaged, but for these two misfits - I mean, who would want to be with either of them, really? - it works. I don't think in any way this is a "traditional" couple (obviously, right?) that we are used to seeing in our real lives. It is a marriage of convenience. That's all. And the money will not buy long term happiness - Philip has the most to lose, as always. Just the way Stephanie likes it.

Will they really get married? Remains to be seen. Stephanie never finishes anything, so I wouldn't bet the farm on it.

Just the type of 'man' (I use that word lightly) that Mummy wanted Fanny to marry when a fortune was spent sending her to Oxford. Unlike her first marriage, Fanny will receive no London flat as part of the inevitable divorce settlement from broke, unemployed, uneducated Snorty.

I was actually a fan of Billy’s until a few days ago. Between his slightly haughty response, to the sycophants telling him they don’t care what he did 10 years ago, I have unsubscribed. Apparently, we should all go out and commit crimes, steal from other people, hope we don’t get found out for 10 years, to be absolved of any crimes (according to those who comment). I cannot believe people in the comment section are praising a man who stole from small churches, which he knew were left open for the public, but chastising those who ‘commit the crime’ of criticising Billy in the comment section.

OK. I'm not gifted, not a pro... just a hobbyist... here's a simple 3 card spread: past, present, future kind of read. What I can glean is that Fanny has come to terms with her lovelife situation and has chosen money instead of love. Along comes PhiPhi with the same aspirations. They're perfect for each other. This is a business union.

I decided to draw an "end game" bonus card and "Judgment" fell from the deck as I was shuffling. 5 of Cups was the bonus. It doesn't appear to be a total fairytale for the gruesome twosome. They'll have a fairly decent run but will be scrutinized and eventually lose in the end. Pretty generic common knowledge to us here in TL. I wish I could dig deeper into the time-frame and get specific on the judgment.

If I'm way off base and wrong in my interpretation, please let me know.

Clever, clever Fanny- now that the stars for the chapel have been mostly bought up, her newest grifting campaign will be "Buy me a diamond!" Right now, gansta grannies are digging furiously in their jewelry boxes to send Fanny their priceless family heirlooms so that she has a proper ring.

I don't know what is worse- "Belly" stealing from churches, or Fanny conning vulnerable people. They are all grifters and con artists at the end of the day. Tealeafs in the night.

God he's vile. Was that a lounge lizard George Sanders dressing gown he was surveying the domain in?

He's not good-looking enough for Potts.
Or anyone else.

I think marrying Snorts after 30 years of single life is a tacit admission she's not pulling any more.
I wonder if that's why she no longer has the party people to the shitoo?
