Yes! Stay Away from SJ’s boring toile fest. I cannot imagine being that young and wasting my best years at that dump. Your twenties are prime time, and if you love men, if you want Attention from Sexy, Hot men for ‘Fun’ company, Lalande is definitely not the place to be. I would NEVER have stayed there. 😘😎 (ah...the memories...🥰)
Or even if you prefer girls. Not the place to find happy, balanced fun companions. Natti is lovely, but how long before the life is drained out of her living there in the middle of nowhere. 😘

I refuse to cook in a filthy kitchen so no idea how Dan's going to handle it. To his credit, he's not enthusiastic about it. I wouldn't last 5 minutes in that shatoo madhouse

Ok, I have to move on to Lalalande, I can’t talk about MPK anymore. I’ve already given that clown too much attention already, he’s mentally exhausting.

Take this all with a wink and a nod, because the ”pool party” scene was hilarious, not funny ha ha, more like ”My God it’s hilarious they even filmed this ridiculousness!”.

SJ and her synchronized swimming club rejects looked nuts floating in that kiddie pool! They put two giant inflatables in there so they could float in six inches of water? Even if Davy had shorts, where was he going sit? On Nati’s lap? There was no room for Canadian what’s her name. Just invest in a larger pool! Get one of those Intex pools, a three to four footer for the summer, they are not that expensive. Sometimes, I swear SJ is such a cheapskate! I’d have thrown those stupid floaties in the moat! They are enormous and Marie and Nati looked like absolute pool hogs taking up all of the room, the poor new girl probably wanted to get in, but was afraid to ask them to chuck the peacock to make room. And who brings brioche to a, what I’m calling, trailer park pool party? Because the one thing I want is bread bloat in a bathing suit. Maybe it’s worth it if it’s normal pool party food, hot dogs, hamburgers whatever. This whole ”I’m quirky in a kiddie pool” schtick is getting old. At some point, it’s no longer quirky to “glam up” in a matching bathing suit and sun hat to sit in an inflatable pool eating brioche, it falls more into “is she off her meds” territory. Before you come for me, I’m not anti-kiddie pool, we’ve been there: camping in 100 degree weather, small spaces, little kids, easy to clean, yadda yadda. With the amount of cash she brings in a month, she could buy everyone in the house their own pool paradise, complete with an inflatable bird of their choosing. Just get a larger pool ya lunatics!
Just imagine the panic the loonies are having now! "How am I going to get my pool floaties in my carryon bag for the pool party at la la land"! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Oh you will all be so disappointed.

Im so glad Kat is leaving the shatoo soon! She's the most real there and dont deserve to be treated badly.
Yes, however she chose to come back knowing what it was really all about. So what does that really say about her?

Noooooo......don't start in on that girl 😅 At least she did spur the Shatoo Queen into cleaning out her closets. No word yet on how many rat traps were required, tho....

Truly mind boggling. They are definitely not broke, none of them! The asking for subs to research the painting indicates how lazy they are. Appraisers exist, he paid big bucks for a painting, pay a little more and find out it’s value. Stop using fans as their own personal Antiques Roadshow. I’d be embarrassed to publicize that frat house, (which I coined “frateau”) but they had no shame in showing it. I’d never stay there, willingly giving them money, seeing how they treat the place.
Not to defend the Beggers of Begmania...but i had more then once the pleasure to visit some great English countryhouses...behind the scenes...stayed in the private living areas...they looked quite the same like Begmania...... :oops: full of old crap, not organized etc...and they all had staff too....i was very surprised to say the least..it happens alot in casles and countryhouses..the staterooms are nice...but when you enter behind the double doors...

I was thinking of exactly the same thing yesterday as I’m a massive Bloomsbury set fan and wonder if Fanny thinks of her setup as the same as Charleston Farmhouse. The big difference being that those folks were all either fiercely intellectual or extremely creatively talented . Not really the same as her crew. Not sure her chateau will still have 100s of visitors over a century later either.
Some of the Bloomsberries were geniuses as you point out. They all had real talent and worked like dogs. Except for Clive Bell who was their well-connected bon vivant, who introduced them to the rich. They were Fabian socialists and worked hard to do their share of political activism (Leonard Woolf, in addition to keeping Virginia alive, wrote long tracts which helped found the League of Nations, and was influential on East India policy). Their talents were literary, artistic, economic, political. Though atheist, they had principles they struggled hard to live up to. Thinking the Omega workshops, how avant-garde was that? SJ could do that -- if only she knew any talented, hardworking artists. In her dreams.

Billy has been out antiquing... He has had his eyes on this painting for the last year at least, he was bound to buy it eventually. Ernest seems to like the new lady of the house. It’s gorgeous, I wonder who the artist is. Any guesses?

Even I, who know more about Santa Claus than I do about Vigee le Brun, can tell through the LED screen several thousand miles away, that this is nothing like a Vigee le Brun.

Tatty Yana is ,as now stated by Selmar, his girlfriend. It is doubtful they have met physically. The plan is for them to buy a chateau together. She ‘has been’ a freelance ( infrequent) presenter and author she is 50 but all the photos she has posted show her as much younger. She is due to arrive at Lalalande in September. She ( allegedly) decided to travel from the UK to Turkey recently( a red zone country and as such essential travel only) for a medical ‘procedure’ during which time she was taken ill with gallstone problems. The surgery ( allegedly) didn’t go as planned so she has to have another in a few days time. Her family had not been made aware of this emergency and when they did find out via a third party Tatty Yana didn’t answer their numerous phone calls, (see previous post). From this post it would appear they were also not aware of Tatty Yana’s relationship with Selmar. Tatty Yana is controlling all communication at the moment which leads one to believe that something is not quite right and that Selmar is being used, perhaps as her stepping stone to fame and fortune ( ???????)
The word Catfish has also been mentioned many times here. There are also questions as to whether Selmar is in on all this and it is a long con. Time will tell.
Should get Dr Phil on the case he’s been doing shows on people being catfishEd. Sad stories! Personally can’t stand Dr Phil but love a good catfish story. Tatyana’s whole story screams catfish. follows the same script only it has been tailored to fit and hook Selmar. Love of animals, wanting to buy a chateau etc

So ‘Florian‘ I suspect, is Andrew’s twin and they have come as a package and have been at the chatoo for some time….it’s the deceit that’s annoying….Florian has been plucked and shaved and groomed to get rid of his similarity to Andrew, but he’s still got his necklace on. So basic.

To be fair, they got the pool and the inflatables at one of their gift grabs.

MP really is trying very hard, and I think he's making a great effort. Preparing a Greek salad in his cosy cottage kitchen, then dinner en famille in the shatoo,, with the "guests", Gwen and the baby, (but no Earnest?), cute doggies and kitties, prettyboyfriend studying English, reclining on the bed in the honeymoon suite, pretty flowers, pretty sunset....everything you could wish for in an escapist video! Clever Michael!

Greetings!

I'm a long-time admirer of this common-sense forum full of decent and frank talking souls. Being more of a listener than talker I’ve been content to lurk and nod in approval (and often laugh out loud) at various member’s views over the last few months.

However, I am so angry at the bloody audacity of the poor mouth utterances in Petherdick’s latest vlog that I feel the need to vent along with you…much of which has already been said but please humour me anyway….

What a sly, mendacious and self-serving character he is. Having the privilege of being given a home in his sister-in-law’s beautiful French chateau, he abuses her hospitality by sneaking up to his den like the proverbial rat up a drainpipe to hold out his begging bowl to his hapless YT and Patreon subscribers, expecting them to feel sorry for him and fill his coffers (again!) after squandering thousands of their euros on his recent flights of fancy and debauchery.

His shameless exploitation and abuse of their goodwill (and idiocy!) is beyond galling.

His insincerity was clearly obvious to those of us who see him for what he is…..an amoral grifter. His shifty looks, unable to look directly at the camera as he spouts lie after lie, his “I can’t believe I’m telling you this” statements to justify his wretched unrequited lust fest, his ‘mansplaining’ of how the Patreon account fund total is exaggerated and nowhere near what he actually receives from it….blah, blah, blah!

And then if that wasn’t enough, he has the audacity to use his gayness as a crutch to prop up his ‘woe is me’ sob story.

I am so angry at this despicable swindler and probably angrier at his comatose and obtuse fans who cannot seem to wake up from their trance. Why, oh why can’t they see the duplicitous manipulation?

How can his family condone and enable this behaviour? From a spectator’s stance, the humiliation he brings to them by association is utterly mortifying to watch.

In these difficult pandemic times where so many are struggling and we are all being prevented from living and moving about we would wish to, this clown is making a mockery of hard working, responsible and decent folk for whom he deigns to offer an ‘escape’ through his vlogs, oh and laughably be a ‘role model’ to. GET OVER YOURSELF YOU SELFISH, LAZY LITTLE SCROUNGER.

And in the words of the inimitable Judge Judy…..’GET A JOB’!!!!

There. Done.
Thank you for letting me vent my spleen peeps. Maybe I'll get worked up enough to have a pop at that other shameless grifter 'Beggery Stephanie' in a day or two…….cold and calculating as she clearly is to those who can see beyond the façade. I can imagine she’s secretly experiencing schadenfreude at her friend’s latest debacle…. but I believe in karma and surely it is coming for her too…..

Namaste

This was so well written it was a delight to read!! YES angered beyond belief at his blaming being gay on any of the mess he’s in. Our daughter is gay and has a perfectly self sufficient life!
As for SJ. How can she not take care of her home after traveling to others and seeing how her fellow owners did bottom to top Reno’s before the painting and fluffing

Ma Petherick did a good job looking after the tomato plants in MPK's protracted absence.
Is there any water connection in the cottage? I don't recall him actually washing his hands or food while making salad.
Again Alexander got slagged off. Not finding napkins. Mind you he got the knives and forks on the wrong side when he laid the table. Andrew makes a better cameraman than PJ.
