Totally agree. The plan is rubbish. The step up is too high so it will look and feel like she is climbing up onto a stage. The higher level is too near the ceiling. They need to keep the whole thing at the level it is at now. They could lower the two windows and not have access to, but have a great view of the lake (if it ever happens) and the chapel OR put the door in and outside where the land level is higher, dig a small courtyard space where she could have her own outside seating area, bordered on all sides which would be nice. Then a flight of steps up to ground or chapel level. What is wrong with these people?

Philip is NEVER going to leave Lalalande. He has discovered sycophanting will take him to far-off places he only dreamed of going, all-expense paid. He will be her forever gay best friend forever. MPK has been completely dethroned.

I noticed that comment..and was quite shocked he would make a comment like that at all let alone on camera. The jacket was completely ghastly. But no matter Philip's preferences, they have cottoned on early that it is important that they appeal to the pink pound too.

If he is only her gay best friend, he won't be there forever because she will replace him with a man who can admire as as a lover and not just a friend. He will be dethroned in due course. But he has a longer shelf life if he is her lover (and I am absolutely sure he is).

And think of the size of the bed and wardrobe that Fanny has bought for her!

The ONLY breath of fresh air on today's vlog was seeing this lovely family.
It shows that Dan was raised well by a loving family, which makes all the difference in the world---perhaps it's the reason why his feet never leave the ground nor his head puffed up.

They say, "men marry their mothers." Analiese and her mother-in-law seem equally sweet and obviously both equally beautiful!

The Movie "Under the tuscan sun" is my favorite! I noticed SJ was reflecting the heroine by wearing a white dress. If you watched the movie you would get what I mean. She really does live in her own fantasy world.

The ONLY thing I like about Philip is the fact he stole MPKs crown and the ONLY thing I like about the Christie's event is that its likely made MPK sick with envy ... I imagine he's rolled up In Sherrie's lap right this minute, sucking his thumb and whinging about the unfairness of it all (video to follow).

BJJ and SJ remind me of Will and Grace.

Will: Look, if I can't have sex with you, I couldn't have sex with any woman! It's a compliment to you!
Grace: That's not a compliment! A compliment is "You're sexy, you turn me on," not "One look at you proves I'm a queer"!

Don’t worry…he’ll take solace by eating a jar of “Royal Jam” slathered on homemade Aga bread fed to him by Andrew in the bridal suite boudoir!

She vibes with every heroine/protagonist in every story she ever reads. Typical narcissist.

The search is over.
We split our budget and ended up closing a deal on a villa in Cote d'Azure, and a flat in Paris instead of a chateau.
The villa is smaller and much easier to manage than a chateau, was on the market for a whole year, and has the most stunning views of Rade de Villefranche!

Dang! I sound like Michael Morrison! Apologies.

What a vomit fest. I really don’t think I can handle much more. Am fast forwarding 80% of the episodes. Will have to stick around to see Mason interact with Phyllis….

I imagine Philip meeting Mason for the first time and saying: "Daddy!"

I think you both did the smart thing !
With the fast train you can get to Paris and the Cote d'Azure in hours .
I would not want a Chateau ... so much work and looking at LaLaLand .... just Nooooooo.
Congrats to you both !

Must watch this ep - have to go out, so it will have to wait but I thought Col Sanders was dead? Sure EVERYONE has noticed that that similarity but what in the name of tailoring is that get up? Has to be the lining for something, can not be the finished garment...is it a 1 euro disposable rain jacket? So much fun looking at an image before watching the vlog!! The mind boggles.
