The Chateau Diaries #310 What does Phillip do for a living? NOTHING!

[billybudd]

Thank you @ComtesseRose for the new thread and congrats to @Lady Avonlea for naming.

Enjoy your concert @ComtesseRose full report on the tattler desk in the morning please.

I realise now that I was remiss with my thanks on the last thread, so thank you to all. You keep me amused and saine.

I find that I can't watch Despicable fanny and Thrush, or in fact any of the dump crew, for more than a couple of seconds at a time. So all you tattlers, your input is excellent. I thank each and everyone of you for taking one for the team.

@JackSpratt her fans may not keep shelling out much longer. Not because the penny's dropped but because the old fools have dropped dead! She will see them in their graves before she gives up the grift, so callous is she.

Good to hear you are having a break in the rain and better weather is arriving for you. We are definitely moving into summer. Last couple of days tapping on 30° which is my perfect summer temperature. Helps stop all the aches and pains!

As happenstance would have it I was in Pezenas last week. No Jarvis' or Richmonds were spotted as I believe all had left the country or were out of the country at that point. All the overpriced tit shops, sorry brocunts, were open. They will certainly be a magnet for the gruesome twosome. We looked for a restaurant to eat but they were all busy with very pale skinned brits in pastel coloured clothing so we gave it a swerve and headed back to Béziers for a quick lunch on the allées Paul Riquet. Not Le Cristal. I was recently informed that not only was this establishment popular with brits and the local belligerent population but also with all the winos as the bar will continue serving them when other bars won't. Now who did we see there recently who appears to drink a lot, always with a glass in hand... hmm.

I actually had the most amazing week. I saw the new orthopaedic surgeon and he has said that a new knee prosthesis is an absolute must. The interior is completely fucked and no amount of cortisone or hyaluronic acid will give any relief. But only half knee as the exterior side is normal and intact. I could have jumped up and kissed him. I'm booked in for early July!

Yesterday, I saw the new rhumatalogue. OMG, what a star. He concurred with the orthopaedic surgeon that the interior of the knee is completely fucked and that while injections may bring some relief it's not the solution. So everything is moving forward in the right direction. I fully intend walking another stretch of the Puglian aqueduct and swimming in the Ionian sea again later on this year. My goals.

So my dear @JackSpratt and all other tattlers with health issues keep pushing forward and insist upon 2nd, 3rd or even 4th opinions. The two so-called "specialists" I saw previously were just quacks, in no way concerned for the health of their patient. Just getting the cash in. They were happy to condemn me to a life of invalidity, in 5 years time when they wanted to operate I would be 68 by which time no doubt the rest of my mobility would have gone along with my mental health.

So I wish to all you hags, hellhounds, witches, witches and trolls the good fortune that I have recently received. Today is my birthday and as my people have to be at work during the day I have you guys to keep me company Geminis rock

Tattle on.

Many happy returns of a good day, Miss Moi. Shake it, don't break it.

Michael Potts is finishing the chapel ceiling constellation map. You owe it to the generous donors!!!! Philip failed getting this done!!!

Poor Kelly Joyce.......Philip is a loser, don't you know that?

 

[Seeingitasitis]

Another transactional visit to the Dump. Media exposure in exchange for visiting Dump and acting as “ friends” of Phillip. They look absolutely bored. They couldn’t even “ act” excited to be around Snorts.

Ruby says they are as well acquainted with Snorts as George and Amal Clooney are with Harry and Meghan.

. Better table settings and cleaner accommodations than CHMN

 

[NotAChatelaine]

The lovely yacht chef Nina doesn’t post on YT that often but, when she does, it’s a guaranteed interesting watch. This is her latest, not afloat but a snippet of what’s she’s been up to during her latest shore leave (she now works as one of the two rotational chefs on M.Y. Loon - I think it’s 12 weeks on, 12 weeks off).


I am resisting the temptation to mention MariE’s overblown (maybe that should be overboard?) pipe dream.

 

[billybudd]

Gosh, in that video, Snorts looks like a misfit. He is the least attractive; the least animated, and looks the least confident of the whole group. All the others are well turned out and look smart, confident, and at home on stage, not scruffy, anxious, little PJ. If anything, he looks less attractive than he does now. I think he and Fanny are well matched. When not in charge of the narrative, they are nervous, unattractive personalities with very little going for them. I think they both probably have quite serious issues with which they have not dealt. The need to acquire and Fanny's manic acting are masking their huge problems. I wonder if, one day, they will spiral downwards quite dramatically. Fanny will probably be the first to collapse if she manages to realise what she has done with her grifting life. Although we can all see through her and are horrified by the falsity and use of other people's naivety, I am beginning to wonder if she is actually neurologically capable of change. I also think that everyone else in their families, and any old friends that still remain, are equally guilty of aiding their shenanigans. Surely, anyone who really cared for them, would see how desperate they both are and would try and encourage them to seek professional help, rather than sitting still and watching what they are doing, both to themselves and others. Most patrons don't seem to have enough intelligence or insight to recognise this but you would think their families might, or are they all just as thick, or blinded by materialism as F and S? Of course, it's rather like anyone seeking to help any addict; they can't be helped until they, themselves, accept that they are actually in need of help.

I've decided Grant's real role at the shitoo is to model a clean skin bald head for Pheeph. Wastes no testosterone on growing hair. And hasn't fallen into the trap of growing a big grody beard after shaving the pate.
He's also actively modelling protein generosity and was allowed to say something on camera about teaching Marie to bbq "thigh fillet" which apparently is Oz for "chicken thighs".
Nothing Fanny loves better than to film a grift in process, and having your volunteer worker rock up with €100+ worth of meat might just be the best grift of all.

 

[Kickintheass]

Just had a lovely giggle. Chateau de Pican on YouTube. They recently bought and were left all the contents, armies of cherubs as they do a house tour. I'd love to hear the commentary if they were at Lalande.

Ooops, I forgot to thank @ComtesseRose for the new thread, @Lady Avonlea for the title and of course to wish @C'est moi a very happy birthday. Have a great one

Sorry I am late to the party !

Quote of the year.. so far.."I cried when I first came in to the chapel bc it reminded me of one my father's paintings"... €500.00 worth of restoration just to get to the level of a Jarvis masterpiece. Now wait for a Snorts' grandfather quote ..."the gilding on the arches is soo reminiscent of the golden rim of my grandparents' china cabinet".
Did anyone catch a glimpse of what he was scrolling on his phone while 'talking' to his friends - auctions, Tattle comments?
.

Snorts ‘ chose’ this wedding scene ‘ painting ‘ of Daddy Dereks to display in the panelling for the best …bedroom vlog.
Tits out at a wedding. Will that be Snorts or Fanny’s?

 

[Cleo's Asp]

I’ve done it several times and they keep deleting it, I wish I could leave a photo comment because that would be the best

Maybe if someone from the other side of the world could leave a comment when it's the middle of the night in France, it might remain a bit longer. It's the US fans that need to see it and would be the most shocked I guess.

Joyeux anniversaire @C’est moi
I hope you have had a wonderful day down south

Have been even quieter than usual on here as just out of hospital having had the bottom half of my colon removed (yes sadly a big C diagnosis a few weeks ago) But hopefully on the road to recovery now

Didn’t have the energy or headspace to read about the despicable grifter for last couple of weeks …. have just read through the last thread & surprise surprise I see nothing at all has changed.
The obsessive spending on utter tasteless useless tat continues.
Fanny launches the idea of another big plan that will never happen & the egregious lies to grab peoples money as much as she can continues.
Karma is sure as hell taking its time …….

She did not like it when people said Daddy was pervey but he had bare breasts and bottoms all over the place, not to mention the one with the used condom and now she says the chapel painting reminds her of his work. Really?!

 

[CountessPompidoo]

Freshly back from his travels, Uncle Dingo is stocking up on carbs. Unless he buys the meat for a baaaaarbeeeeee, the offerings at the Shitoo can’t be appealing day in day out.

Just now from Dan the gardener's channel!

Sorry to hear about your diagnosis. Let’s hope you get the best care and you have a lovely rest and recovery. Hopefully, we can provide a little bit of laughter to help you make it through.

 

[Imperious Me]

Scripted so she can show that they had already visited the Dump previously and were so fond of Philip that they made a second trip to the Dump
to see him. What they don’t show are the two former “ acting” pals then being forced to work in the garden and do the Dump laundry and clean all the B and B rooms to pay for their holiday, wash the Porsche, as well as purchasing enough food for the dump for the week.

Next week, Stephanie will video the back of two wigs propped up on the back of the sofa and pretend she’s greeting the parents of Snorty as she enters the room, and then pan the camera over to Philip sitting in a chair opposite his parents, pretending that they are present at the dump and having a conversation.

Sad part was, he wasn't even having a conversation with his 'long time no see' friends, he was on his freakin' phone! Tea cups were empty and Snorts was scoffing all the biscuits.

 

[MRShavershamsdress]

Moving slowly, but @Ladeda1957's call out of brown food as Marie's mood ring, in the previous thread, has me waving all eight feet in the air.
Halved peas, mood ring, after Pheeph's bollocks.
Maria's black sauce #7, mood ring, holding tray in front of face so you can't film me.
Ded now.

Girl’s got lots of “tells”. Gives the game away every time.
