Here we go!!! Meet Kimberley Preiksaitis, the new pay to play volunteer at Lalande. She is listed as a countess. It does not cost much to be recognized by SJ and her handlers. Now, if she is there to research grifting and grifters, I applaud her. Unfortunately, I do not thinks that this is the case. Hopefully she can still think critically and will have an eye opening experience.

She went to Queens University in Ontario. Perhaps she is friends with the makers/sewist/whatever.

We really need a new thread before this is closed. @MojoDublin seems MIA at the moment. Anyone could create it but I haven't kept on top of the title suggestions at all.
"How to succeed without trying (to work)" ?
There's rather short space for the title.

From Thread 2, comment posted 24th October 2020:

Goodness me, the Boy Trotter doesn't half irritate with the constant rattling of his virtual begging bowl. Costs are spiralling out of control with the cottage restoration? However did that happen, Michael? It couldn't possibly have anything to do with bad (non-existent) project management, cock-eyed decisions, a meaningless budget-written-on-the-back-of-a-stamp versus extravagant expenditure way beyond the worth of a one down, one up cottage and, in general, laughably grandiose ideas that others are actively encouraged to chip in towards.

As for the oak beam malarkey, all I saw was a truculent toddler throwing a tantrum and the grown ups caving in. Michael says it's all about authenticity. All very commendable, but does authenticity really include panelling on the walls and kitchen units created to a bespoke design? In a tiny and unremarkable cottage. Money being spent like water. And talking of water, I wonder what chaos will emerge when it comes to plumbing..and the electrics.

The cottage doesn't even belong to him. He has no security of tenure. What happens if it all goes belly up at Trotter Towers? Of course, it's in his brother's interest that the cottage is done up and this is a convenient way of saving it from becoming a collapsed pile of stone without spending a sou himself. None of this should matter a jot, or be the business of anybody else. EXCEPT that by relying on and courting contributions from strangers it becomes other people's business.

The cottage is a vanity project, plain and simple. I can just about get my head around the Patreon contributions - chacon a son gout - but I find the use of gofundme really distasteful. To me, gofundme is about an individual raising funds for a worthy cause, i.e. a charity (I've several friends who've used GFM for things like London Marathon sponsorship with a nominated benefitting charity) or a specific charitable project. Not to provide the means to pay for doing up a decrepit cottage attached to an estate* in France. Frankly, it stinks..


* I can't think why I didn't put estate in inverted commas in the original post.

And today, 22nd July 2021...

Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose. Except now, 9 months later, the "narrative" has become a dark and forbidding sea of deceit, avarice and arrogant contempt for those who've supported the chateausphere Peter Pan.

I feel not even the smallest twinge of sympathy for this very public unravelling of the tarantula's web he has spun. He's a sham, a charlatan, a hustler, a fraud and all the other fancy words which mean the same thing: a barefaced, downright liar.

Well....the insufferable little git has raised more than €3200 on his gofundme thanks to his most recent tale of woe.

Edit to add....he's gained 130 Patrons on Patreon. Fools and their money....

This is written by someone whose first language isn't English. The sentence structure isn't right. I don't know if this is relevant. It makes me wonder if this post is part of a complex long con.

She went to Queens University in Ontario. Perhaps she is friends with the makers/sewist/whatever.
Queens is in Kingston, my eldest grandson works there. Its a long way from where the makers/sewists live, I can't see it being likely that they know each other. Canada is a big country.

The Patreon number was 544 before the beg vlog and it's now 561. That's 17 new fools. Just one fool donating one euro is too much but this beg vlog has not been anywhere near as successful as his previous ones. It has also created an unprecedented and well earned backlash for him in the comments. Unfortunately, I don't think he reads the comments and prefers to keep his head up his ass. Sorry, I mean Andrew's ass.
