Apologizing for what? Endless spending? Endless vacationing (during a pandemic)? Getting absolutely nothing down with their endless money? Or for being cruel to Selmar? Phyllis’ snorting? I could go on.
Tyrant/Victim. Two sides of the same coin.

This is the sad reality about vicarious living and people not knowing what to to with themselves, much less what to do with their energy. The only reason these unemployed chateau owners can get any income is because of these kind of people. People always hold power. A youtuber is not the reason for living for anyone. Viewers should wise up and stop breastfeeding these crooks, particularly SJ.

Greasy dirty door handles as well. I wonder who does Covid/cleanliness checks there? It really does show them up when visiting other Chateaus.
Anna and Eds was cleaner after a flood from a storm and even with flood water looked cleaner than this dump.
As much as you lot love to make fun of Americans we ( most ) are e tremendously picky when it comes to bathrooms, kitchens and google reviews. Wonder how this will play out even with super fans, when they actually see how it all truly is.

Caption Contest: "Sorry, I don't get it. If I am a princess, am I supposed to feel the pea or not feel the pea? Because I am not feeling the pea right now. Nati, can we get a bigger pea here? Like now."

The Pays George Sand site @Clara Burnett refers to as the place to lodge complaints about filth at Lalande, also has a list of eight chateaux in Jarvis' immediate locale.
I am unaware she has visited a single one.
One reason may be their owners are private, hard-working French people, not fake, jet setters. Chateau du Breuil Yvain is a 13th-19th c chateau compound owned for 20 years by a Parisian international lawyer. It's 20 minutes from Lalande. Which clearly is not in the middle of nowhere. He and his family do all the work of restoration and maintenance. Jarvis wouldn't be caught dead there. Nor, very likely, would she be invited.
Second of the eight: Twenty minutes from Lalande, the 13th c Chateau de Sarzay was bought in 1982 by an EDF agent Richard Hurbain and his nurse wife for 790K francs (ca US$121K).
He and his wife have single-handedly and without subsidy restored it themselves. Their website features thumbnails of numerous local and regional newspaper and magazine articles about their long and arduous renovation. One headline calls him the Don Quixote of Sarzay.
Sarzay is a medieval fortress with pepper pot towers and a moat, pretty grotty.
The video features aerial views, and dusty furnished interiors -- can't tell if it's the way they found it, or how they have furnished it. I like the roughness of it, it doesn't look as dirty as the DIY gilt pasted up all over Lalande.
An outpost facing the English frontier in the 100 years war, Sarzay is the backdrop Castle Blanchemont in George Sand's 1845 "arch socialist" novel, The Miller of Angibault.
You can stay, for €70 a night, in an unpretentiously restored timber and lime render bedroom.
No hint Jarvis has heard of it or would ever be invited for dinner.

I've never made fun of Americans. Mrs G is American and has high standards(she fell a bit short with me, but she likes a project)I too would look at the reviews.

This is never shown in the CD vlogs!

This is perfect!

Anyone see the latest Patreon video? The apology tour has started. Based on her response, she’s a little worried…….

Did anyone else hear at the end of Selmar's video his comments to MP who was taking somevphotos of him. About 12:40 - 12:51. I am sure Selmar says he is a bit emotional.
It was a sadly depressing video….could not understand what was happening In the background. Maybe MPotts wants out of his share of the Chateau?

Judging from how the superfans jump to defend SJ and the Shitoo, I highly doubt if there will ever be any honest reviews. Their expectations are too high. They'll be too embarrassed for her and the best thing to do is keep quiet and crawl in to a hole....never to be heard again.
I wish I could go there but I don't know how to survive Bear Grylls style.

In the latest Patreon video she goes over all the projects, apologizes and says they will be updated at the first of every month from now on. Apologizes for her travels being the subject of Patreon videos. Apologizes for not being able to show projects that she can’t show because they are filmed for tv. Shows 2 projects completed for tv. Says the chapel restorer begged to stay on the project at cost even though she tried to pay for the work, and that he’s recouping from his fall. Walked all over the place showing all the work. Had jeans on, hair up because it probably looked like tit, and makeup. (Big improvement). Said she’s waiting on carpentry jobs til her cousin comes in August. Said Ian’s been working everyday on a secret project she can’t show yet. Showed the inside of the dirty bed crown has been reupholstered. Basically everything we warned her about….oh and said even if she goes off she will be back every weekend to have meals with the b$b guests. The thought of losing $30K a month straightens her right up. Let’s see if it lasts……🙄

Omg.....that pose....clearly Potts his work..made after a few bottles of champagne...those pictures and the reality...very different.. :rolleyes: you would expect your bed is made..and that the room is cleaned...Not...
It’s the picture she used on her instagram when her ‘relationship’ with the workawayer from Scandinavia ended and he left her, all alone at the shitshow. Trust her to reuse that portret of heartfelt misery for marketing purposes. She will stop at nothing if it brings her more of the same…

I agree, the compulsive shopping is part of the manic behavior. She is trying desperately to fill a void, possibly from her childhood, a bad relationship, her parents and brother (Gerry) constantly telling her she was a princess and realizing she never was or never will be. The possibilities are endless. All this shopping has created more problems as you can see from the endless amounts of :poop: that needs to be removed. She is not happy nor will she ever be. The name dropping to me is so tasteless and classless, which she most definitely is. Hi Steph!;)

I guess because this is the first time she has had a ‘job’ she just realised you have demonstrate that you are actually doing your ‘job’ and how you have ‘earned’ your ‘salary’. Stab me 🙄

Oh hell yeah....... if Nutti was gone , snorts gone and old Mum and Gerry back the reno's would be in full swing!
SJ just loves to "play" and do "fun stuff" - like a child !
I wouldn’t count on it. From when she was a little girl, Gerry was trained to be her personal butler, doing exactly what she needs him to do: keeping Mummy at arm‘s length. From what you see in the early vlogs it might appear IJ is effective and hard working, but you should never let their smoke and mirrors cloud your judgement. It’s not just SJ’s desire to play and do fun stuff, her family is at the base of how she came to believe she’s entitled to it all.

We can all hope! From the photo of the kitchen floor, I wonder what the white droppings on the floor are? Did Thor come into the kitchen and leave a little treat? I hope they are all extremely disappointed with the condition of the money pit and the patrons and viewers numbers fall off a cliff! 🙏🙏🙏

Never mind saw the answer given earlier. Would love to see it. But ain't giving her a dime.

Maybe that's why she had on the stink face at the drum fest...she was dreading eating crow to keep the Patreons happy. Narcs hate admitting fault in anything because they feel they are above apologizing for their actions.
I hope one of you guys posts some Patreon comments so we can see if she pulled the wool over their eyes again.
