Oh hell NO !!!

If its for ratings it will not work as there are people like us that wonder how Ratso 1 died and not happy with the way Ratso 2 is being "looked after" and as for FRK looking after the dog /dogs - I really don't think she would be all sunshine and roses looking after two pups and doing her food .......plus trying to potty train the new one when we all know the old one pees and poo's and that is why Snort carries him around.
Can you imagine two dogs in his creepy arms!!! :mad:
He wouldn't be able to do his pointy finger.

We've been trying to adopt a dog, the criteria is so high at the refuges and because we're in the process of having work done here, we've already been refused once.

They don't deserve to have any animals at all.

What's the fantasy filter done to his nose? Does he have a cleft nose or is it melting? Phillip Dragon Snozz.

Amusing tidbit about Crozon-sur-Vauvre.
I've been slow-cooking a business idea for my eventual move to France and am researching and scouting locations with help from ChatGPT.
For kicks I asked about Crozon-sur-Vauvre. This was the reply:

***CHATGPT REPLY***
I’m going to save you some time and a potential mistake: Crozon-sur-Vauvre is a hard NO for the (redacted business idea).
And here’s why—no romance, just reality:

First, what it actually is
  • Tiny village in Indre (central France)
  • Population: very small (think hundreds, not thousands)
  • No train
  • No tourism engine
  • Deep countryside
This isn’t “charming hidden gem.”
It’s: quiet, rural, and largely invisible

For your criteria, it fails almost every test
No rail
→ you’ve already identified this as a dealbreaker
No water draw
→ no Loire, no harbor, no promenade, no “scene”
No foot traffic
→ not even seasonal, not even accidental
No evening life
→ after dark = silence, maybe a dog barking somewhere

The core issue
This is the kind of place where:
  • people live
  • they don’t wander
And your entire concept depends on: people wandering, discovering, lingering

What would work there?
If you were:
  • opening a gîte
  • writing a novel
  • filming a moody indie project
Then sure—beautiful, peaceful, cheap.

But a (business idea? you’d be (business idea) for… yourself.

This is the exact trap you’ve been avoiding
It probably looked:
  • cute on a map
  • affordable
  • “authentic France”
But you’ve already learned: authentic ≠ viable

Compare to your real contenders

You’ve been gravitating toward:
  • (possible location)
  • (possible location)
  • (possible location)
Those have:
  • movement
  • water
  • tourism
  • energy
Crozon-sur-Vauvre has: none of that

Blunt verdict
Not a contender
Not even a maybe
Not worth another minute of analysis
***END CHATGPT REPLY***


With all of that in mind, I wonder why fan chose Lalande? Did she have no plan or vision? Or was it a pipe dream for any chateau for the right price, no matter where?
It's in legit boondocks! Cute town, but personally I'd need more convenience. Considering how lazy fan and PhiPhi are, I'd think they'd want more convenience too; it's probably the reason they're always away.

BTW, the Richmonds have staked their Google Earth claim:

There's always over my side of the country, not far from the Loire, good coastline, beautiful country side, good motorway links, rail, airport not far, good tourism.

Sorry you have fallen ill, again, Stephanie. If you are open to suggestions from your followers, even though you are half French, try giving up alcohol. There is new research out that no consumption of wine and everything else alcoholic, is safe for your health. Secondly, get the walls of the chateau checked for BLACK MOLD. A lot of old homes have it in the walls, and if you haven't gotten the A-Ok from a specialist yet, you would do well to cancel any guest bookings. It is not fair to them or to you and the rest of the Lalanders for their health. Breathing contaminated indoor air from the room, can have tons of negative consequences, even the C-word!
The woman has the constitution of an Ox.

All to gain comments and sympathy while they go off on another jolly.

That kitchen screams morgue or 1970s school kitchen.
It’s unfortunate. There is nothing subtle about it. It’s the old Lalandfill colors in neon, which seems chaotic to me. If that is going to be a high traffic event production space, I’d think more calming, peaceful colors would be more conducive to less stress during event preparation. They’re both artists and should know this. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I honestly can't see that happening, too many people have noticed how they treat that poor little dog. No matter how childishly she insists on not listening, she has enough sense to know where the money is coming from. At least I hope so. Anyways dogs are annoying, at least I know 2 who are quite annoying today, 1 wouldn't eat her breakfast, because she'd prefer to go to the park, the other wants to eat both breakfasts and barks at me for not allowing that. I'd pick them both up à la Snorts, except together they weigh about what I do. So, Steph, if you're thinking about it don't do it, some day they'll kill and eat you.

Skidmark Jarvis pulled her “I AM SICK” scam repeatedly during March, 2025, December 2025 and in January 2026 too.👇👇👇In 2025, Skidmark had multiple episodes of fake eye infections, “man flu“, suspected COVID, suspected serious cases of flu, strep throat, an abscessed tooth, narcolepsy, and multiple bouts of crippling weakness and fatigue.

April 23, 2024 Skidmark has the flu

April 26, 2024 Skidmark has “man flu.”




january 28, 2024 post about how skidmark jarvis manipulates viewers with illness and death.👇👇 We need to add to the list below…….👇👇👇

Deaths and health issues Stephanie Jarvis has exploited and/ or high jacked to garner sympathy for herself in cd diaries and the gift grab:
Deceased relatives

  1. Deceased Daddy Derek used constantly as cd fodder for content to evoke the little orphan princess vibe.
  2. Her grandmother used to invoke religious devotion to the former party pad chapel
  3. Philip uses the memories of his overly involved, porcelain loving grandparents in dozens of videos.
  4. Henri the ghost of the Marquis she allegedly channeled who allegedly “approved“ of her work restoring the Dump

Deaths since CD began:
  1. Mmakhotso Moloi
  2. Ian the plasterer ( she even told viewers that his family asked her not to film at his funeral services).
  3. Christopher the contractor
  4. Amaury’s dog ( then she posted a clickbait title on a later cd video when Amaury was leaving, implying that his remaining dog Molly had died).
  5. dead peachick ( filming it gasping for breath while dying) ( fan mentioned in one video that wedgewood was the only surviving peachick out of the group born at the Dump. How did the others die?)
  6. Spud and Beethoven
  7. Exploited the story of the death of hundreds of fish when she, Larkin, and Potts drained the pond, leaving the fish flopping and gasping for air as they died. Spoke a few times about the death of the white peacock.
Animal exploitation
Stephanie has facilitated and exploited the birth of chicks and peachicks repeatedly and had Kirsty bring a baby lamb for photos at Easter. She and Snorts have routinely chased and harassed the sheep, chickens, peahens, roosters, peacocks, Ruby, and the hedgehog they reluctantly took to the vet as well as irritating the neighboring cows. Finally, untrained neurotic 50% discount semi royal Ratso is forced to earn his keep in a chaotic, loud environment and star in over 30+ videos to date.


Illnesses/ health issues of others she has exploited and/ or high jacked to garner attention or sympathy:
  1. Percy TB extravaganza ( remember the cd video with the clickbait title implying Percy was dead?)
  2. Mummy‘s eye surgery, blind eye since birth narrative and miraculous restoration of sight. “Worries” about Mummy.
  3. didn’t she talk about Gerry’s cancer?
  4. FRK’s back injury after hauling furniture/ mattresses with Snorts.
  5. Didn’t she exploit Amaury’s sadness about his childhood friend who died In a cd interview?
Stephanie’s health ”issues” depicted to garner sympathy in cd videos:
  1. Covid exposure
  2. water bottles causing skin irritation
  3. headaches
  4. Multiple colds/ flu/ illnesses ( usually occurring the day before a party or celebration)
  5. back pain
  6. gamey arthritic hip ( exploited in multiple videos and in South Africa allegedly for an office visit. Physical therapy and pain meds).
  7. mystery emergency hospitalization ( complete with video from the hospital room) which she never explained to viewers although she promised to do so
  8. Her sadly dry skin that desperately needed the Foreo( sp?) device.
Can you think of anything or anyone else to add to the lists above?
From Pyke’s comment below, she snubbed the death of Diesel and failed to mention his death on the cd channel.

I don’t hate the cupboard colour (I wouldn’t choose it) but that yellow is awful, it’s very ‘80s, very changing rooms show from the 90’s too.
I agree with you. I think the yellow is what was in the kitchen when they bought the place. They've left a lot of paint up that was there when they moved in, never repainting anything - mostly they've just wallpapered over the old paint job if they elected to do anything to the room itself. I was excited to hear on the previous video that they were going to paint it the kitchen....I didn't think they were going to leave that awful shade of screaming yellow up.
