The Chateau Diaries #51 Peeing on Dan's marbles instead of polishing their own

[Alice Strictknickers]

For those of you who may be missing PJJ content I saw these! (I’m sure you are not) But anyway things that pop up in my social media. Again eyes and ears!

Oh, how very dare they! Dousing a hedgegrowhog baby in orange and blossom marinade, prior to wrapping it in clay to bake in the embers of an open fire!

We'll never know for sure, will we. what Nutti says, what a (an inofficial, since no "proper" workaway in that particular program) volunteer's tasks are, and what Cara expected. All she talked about was processing of the fleeces. It is all speculation. Maybe we will find out what really went on.
My bets are on the disappointment of not being able to rub shoulders with the "celebrities". Or maybe some medical issue?

They're not formally working with Workaway any more because they forbid volunteers to work in for profit business, and Jarvis had ALL of the B and B work performed by Workaway volunteers.
I wonder what their terms are now -- similar? Five hours' charring daily, free room and board? There would be no prohibition now that the volunteers could not work for the B and B. Do we know what Nati tells people?
Just in case you forgot here's Tomaz Quaresma's famous video showing the work he did as a Workaway at Lalande.
I think Cara has been made to feel like a servant, per her demeanor on the Patreon video, in which she described all her wool projects, and then said of course I'm here to do anything else I'm asked, or words to that effect.

 

[Alice Strictknickers]

somehow I have the feeling that everyday people avoid bnbing at lala. or are will regular humans be cut from the video?

So many questions indeed! Are all the recent guests patreons? Are patreons given preference over other mere mortals who want to book "the Chateau experience"? Are patreons "normal" people?

I see there was a party here last night. I went to a party, too. No Danny though. He might have been working. Let's see if he's on the beach today...

I see Teabeg also posted a video made of scrapings from the editing room floor. I concur with others, it was boring AF. I had to skip through most of it so I didn't really catch much what was said. Glad to learn details here but I would have much rather watched @Heathcliffe 's porn version. If Teabeg wants to win views back, all he needs to do is put the shirtless Andrew in front of the camera and not behind it. Andrew is not shy of the camera, as you can see in the attached pic from my archives.

Andrew must really be in love! He didn't say "you pay now?" even once in this yawnfest of a vid. Wonder when their LaLande dream wedding will be? My bet is the gofundme for it will open before the week is out.

well at least normal people without being some kind of influencers or "artitst"

Trotter's first daily vlog consisted of 25% filling the aga (Who would have thought it? ). 25% making coffee on the aga, a very brief glimpse of his rent boy, watching the rain through the window, yet another look at each variety of tomato in the greenhouse and finding a cucumber and finally polishing his coal scuttle. I know, you can't wait to watch.

Accepting the mission ….

He would actually look good with this hair

Yes, my bird is snoring away in her prison here...she does duck all too. A kept woman. She insists on sleeping on a silk pillowcase!?! What the duck is that all about. And snores like a pig, must be that silk. I am so drunk.

I am defo not a kept woman but I have a silk pillow case

As they seem to have catered for every possible allergy on the planet, you would think they could have offered kosher food but you are probably more likely to survive without any nasty infections if you steer clear of the HMN!

Or go there and develop complete immunity to every allergy currently known to man

Maria K arrived at Lalande August 5th and is staying until the 9th. This is an old post from April 20, where she gained the attention of SJ in a live chat. Bellow is her YT picture an another live chat with Cara. At least they can commiserate as to how miserable their situation is. Or will Maria K have a very different experience at Lalande because she paid for the full SJ experience??? As of late I am feeling very jaded and impatient. The fail and fall of Lalande and everything in its orbit is long overdue. Tick tock...

From gift grab live chat
Must be a newbie, (SJ's new demographic upgrade), just wait until they experience the chateau in real time!!!! (filth, mice, contaminated food, plumbing problems, everyday chaos...)

Maria K @Chateau unwrapped Love your dress Stephanie! Pucci I believe? I had the pleasure of meeting Emilio Pucci in the 70’s

Chateau Unwrapped! @Maria K You have an eagle eye! It is Pucci

Wow Maria, nice flex! I wonder if Emilio had the same experience?

The greed and the grabbing will never stop
SJ sees France as one big shop
As long as grannies give she'll continue to spend
To human stupidity there is simply no end!

What a lovely euphemism "polishing his coal scuttle" is. I'm sure he'll be teaching Andrew how to do it properly.

I remember that video well, and the outrage that followed it. I never bought Tomaz' version myself. He was definitely mixing some of the workaway reality with great play acting and putting himself into scene.
Wouldn't it be fascinating to do a study on LaLande?

Thanks for the heads up! I definitely won't be watching.

I really have no desire to see Teabag 'polishing his coal scuttle'

Hope the silk pillowcase works as well as mine has. (My avatar will show just how effective it has been.). As you can see, I have recaptured my youthful countenance.

WTF is a 'thought leader? Oh wait he was in the Royal Marines so that makes him an expert sales and performance. These people!

OMG, imagine you need to earn your money this way. It breaks my heart, even more as a mother

Are you sure, because he says he's going to give it another go tomorrow and might even have a go at burnishing his plunger.

 

[Lucy borgia]

What a lovely euphemism "polishing his coal scuttle" is. I'm sure he'll be teaching Andrew how to do it properly.

Also 25%of him whining about having to stop to edit, dear lord I'd rather watch paint dry! Dan is Francis Ford coppola compared to Sir Pletherdick.
