Potts is very much like Chris, loves the camera on him and laps up fan compliments / noise / scretching
I get the feeling it's one huge mess at the moment and we're playing tit for tat.
Why shouldn't Yanis stick up for himself.
Someone doesn't like him working there and trying to make. It difficult for him.
It's a shame, not his relationship or his problem.
He popped up on my feed too and I was invited in.... I haven't heard the story about his hair... I just thought he had a good thick head of hair I'll have to catch up... someone said he reminded them of the english actor Leslie Philips from the carry on films... I can see why they would say that... He comes across as a nice bloke and his little dogs too...I’ve recently been watching this guy & his “little castle in Wales”. Seems like some of you might like him too. His more recent videos are better than his earlier ones.
-Nice guy
-Dogs
-Husband
-Transparent about his hair system
-Has professionals do the big jobs
-Tells a good story
-Says his place is haunted
-Actually tries

A window into life in my little castle and beyond! I went from losing everything to owning a little castle in Wales. On this channel I will share vlogs that tell my story and open a window into my life managing the upkeep of my little castle and gardens, showing my commitment to aging well...youtube.com
What is the Ten Berghe castle and why would the Richmond's care?janelstub9273

There is far too much stuff in every room. Sometimes less is more. I wonder if you could stop purchasing anything not absolutely crucial to the restoration until this time next year. I challenge you.

Why oh why, when you know you have guests arriving, who you have presumably known about for weeks if not months, do you leave preparations to the absolute last minute AND then go out for lunch in the middle of all the last minute frantic rushing around..?! Seriously, you guys need to get a grip with your time management....!! It's unbelievably stressful to watch - and completely unnecessary. Everything at the chateau seems to work on a last minute basis!!

I swear, there's a picture of Hanni going to Hell somewhere. She looks younger now than she did 10 years ago.

The fountain sure needs a good steam clean
Maybe because Anne loser shaved it long before it should have been shaved .
Didn't know whether to laugh or puke.
This is for Ruby and Lulu
They are hoarders. It’s really, grindingly sad. I loved how Marie shaded Philip’s cacophony of a tablescape. He is insufferable and looking really terrible. His plugs are not plugging.
He certainly seems desperate to be seen! He gives me the creeps and always seems to be fishing for compliments from the Lalande granny fans. (I'm here in my dressing gown, ...) I suspect he thinks he's newest You Tube sensation and struts through the market hoping that someone recognises him and letching after Omberline. He's one of these newly single middle-aged men looking to pick up a younger girlfriend. Smarmy git!
On a lighter note, Happy Easter everyone!
[/QUOTE]
He suggested on his last vlog that his cat was getting more action than him...hardly surprising... the dandelion tea making was painful to watch.. after leaving it to steep for 15 minutes I'm surprised it was still hot enough to drink.. there a people who are engaging and natural behind the camera (it pains me to say but Princess is a natural albeit theatrical) and then we have people like Chris who should stick to plastering.. he might be a nice bloke but interesting and engaging he is not. Happy Easter may you all receive the blessings and chocolate of your choosing.
Think she had to give it some positivity given the tablecloth was a gift from a guest.
It is a château in Bruges, Belgium. SJ visited them with her Gaygolo. They showed one more time how gross and ill mannered they are. Owned by a family who has absolutely nothing in common with the very common twosome from Lalande.
They used to make videos on Utube.
They have nothing to do with the Richmonds unless I have missed something
What exactly does Potts bring to the table? Boring and lazy. Sourdough.. he brings sourdough..
Stan had to install cameras at Pannard. He was experiencing vandalism and the two new dogs were being let out of their enclosure at night. He said he knew who was responsible and that he wanted them to know cameras were being installed.
I'd opt for staying at home
I would do that at the gym so guys wouldnt talk to me especially on the treadmill and bikes.
Stephanie wishing on a star that “next year” they - I’m not sure how she can keep a straight face, as she does rock all towards getting the house shipshape for the beginning of the season - get their act together sooner.
Her words from the transcript/arrival day vlog, @ 11.06
“Maybe next year we should try pretending to ourselves that everyone's arriving a month earlier. Don't know if it would make any difference, though. I think I can't trick myself into thinking it's earlier when it isn't.”
It’s not Einstein territory to know that the annual panic and rushed tweaking is entirely avoidable and absolutely unnecessary. It’s basic organisation. The date of holding an Easter long weekend for parting punters is determined in advance: Easter never falls on the same date. Look at the effing diary. Plan. Organise.
On the cleaning/prep front, If I were in the same position, I’d employ a team of professional cleaners a week before Easter frivolities/seasonal opening. A deep clean/ bottoming out of every B&B bedroom and bath/shower room. Bed stripped before the cleaners swoop in so that mattresses can be turned. All furniture moved so that every inch of the room is hoovered (sorry, vacuumed!) and skirting wiped down/dusted. Every ornament/extraneous decorative “objet” washed. Mirror glass and windows cleaned. Furniture properly polished: using beeswax polish and elbow grease (at a pinch, beeswax spray polish but ONLY if it’s without silicone). Cobweb patrol. Rooms aired. Etc, etc, etc. Much more than one person is able to accomplish. Beds made up the day before arrival. Day of arrival, the final touches. Dust and hoover (vacuum!). Towels on heated towel rails. Check soap, loo paper, etc in bathrooms. Check bulbs in all lights work. Flowers in the bedroom, bottled water and glasses, tea/coffee making. Folder containing info sheets about Lalande, inc a) what to do in a (God forbid) emergency and b) the local area - places of interest, restaurants. Perhaps the odd glossy magazine for light reading. Reception rooms would have the same treatment.
Some other random thoughts:
Near hysteria from me when the Clown Prince of Nowheresville (aka the prancing twerp) talked about using his grandfather’s “folding book” as a helpful guide in something towards the (somewhat childish) crafting afternoon. What balls of serendipity that his grandfather should have had paper folding as a hobby. Then - they’re present at every moment - his grandparents’ six plastic rabbit napkin rings. Really?
Bonne Maman: however much SJ tries to big it up, it’s not the gracious room she pretends. The bedspread arrangement? The pillows? The newly-added bedside lights, in addition to the wall-fitted lights - why? They’re too big, the lampshades are at odds with everything and, as usual, no thought about proportion and dimensions. I want a bedside table with room for my glasses, book/ipad (or both!), phone, glass of water and a decent light for reading, a light that I can switch on and off easily. The curtains? The first thing you see as you walk into the room is the window ahead. With curtains on a curtain rail that isn’t high enough. It would irritate the hell put of me. Part of the problem, I suspect, is that the original curtains had a pelmet which disguised where the position of the rail was, ergo unnoticeable. No pelmet? Visible daylight twixt top of curtain and wall. No attention to detail, ever. It’s meant to be elegant. It isn’t. The whole place is shoddy and shambolic.
Why aren’t the croissants at breakfast served in a basket? Plonked on top of a plate on the table is awful. Ditto the sliced baguette that jostles for position on the overdressed table in the evening. (Also, warm croissants would be a nice touch…if it’s not too much trouble!!).
Last thing (there’s more but I’ve run out of steam)…kudos to Marie. Presentation looked so much better. She’s reined in the superfluous garnishing. However - there had to be a caveat! - her menu-planning needs work. Avoid a hot starter. Have the starter on the table when people go to the table, Puréed whatever - never do puréed veg twice in the same meal. IF you’re going to do oeufs mollets, you can boil/peel in advance. To do them last minute, when you’ve no help, is crazy. With no help, generally, she’s on a hiding to nothing when it comes to serving individual plates that arrive at the table at anything more than tepid. One thing, Marie: never, ever tell people that it took three attempts to perfect a dish. Don’t speechify. Smile. Serve. Exit.

Who does Easter Egg packages with their other half ? just get on with it, Natti has her boobs a la fan to advertise the hover pen. How many neighbours do they have ?
(Edit) Sorry posted this before I read other similer but more in depth comments
I have to admit I dont watch any Pethericks often, but I am curious. So Yanis had called MP a scammer, he gets on with Gwen so Gwen feels the same, maybe the same feelings towards Billy too! I doubt if Gwens making things awkward so is Sherrie's the only female Petherick left there? I wonder?!
