The Chateau Diaries #69 Thomas, Marie Selmar ... Snorty are you next?

[purejuice]

They can search whatever they want whenever they want to and find nothing. Who needs oily rags and matches when SJ's laziness and carelessness is causing these fires to self ignite?

And raunchy S and M lingerie shoots in the chapel and Moonie wedding birthday parties causing her spontaneously to combust?

..and she's another manipulator as well.

Yellow cardigan screams 'LOVE ME, LOVE ME, STEFFIE!!'

I wouldn't choose this lady as a friend.

As I like to point out....she too is a bit off kilter. Piss her off or snub her and she may slip a bit of arsenic in SJ's tea. . But please, take out Snorts first. You know,....out to the ballgame.

Really Agent 007 -

Shall i bring the champagne... and some nibbles...

So, €18K a month in low season, three farmhouse gites. Six months per annum, €108,000. Fleuries' monthly mortgage/operations nut, €7000, totally covered with a €24K low season surplus if taxes etc not included in their €7K monthly.
Pool installation required.
Not understanding why they would go for restoring their shittoo first. Wasn't there some kind of talk the B n B resto was part of their deal with the bank? Why wouldn't the bank know better, if so?
Also, I recall, part of the Nadaillac/SJ transaction, or a Nadaillac transaction, was allowing one of the farmers who's been on the land for 800 years, to buy a good amount of the property. I like that.

Prices of land are so much more affordable for farming...in France...here in the Netherlands good farmland goes between 75000 and 100000 euro for one Ha..

Had no idea he had patreon., he never mentions it. I knew about the paid sponsorships but not that he had patreon. Interesting.

these days, people have got Patreon before they've got it ... pretty soon kids will be given a Patreon account as soon as they're born ... why wait? In fact, everyone could get money from Patreon and no one will have to work ... or doesn't that work?

on the newest DIO The Marvelous Mr. Michael explained to us neophytes (several times) how gravity feeders work and that psychopathic French dogs kill chickens fast; didn’t mention the Begmania fence surrounding chickens should be much higher(just because you have tiny dogs Michael doesn’t mean the rest of the world does-most farm dogs are a bit bigger than a postage stamp love); we also learned that Michael doesn’t really want to go into the chicken pen too far so he places all the feeding gadgets about a foot from the pen door-no need to carry that damn chicken feed too far eh; and lucky us we now know ducks poo where they swim and chickens will drink poo water; and finally how do we know for certain Titi is not a psychopathic killer dog-because she is not a French dog of course ( I didn’t bother with the rest because he just washed his filthy hands, talked about how it gets dark at 8:30 pm (mmm messing up the timeline) and showed a snip of his best YT bits featuring Fanny Free Pants-oh and Furious Furio was there too)

Can anyone name a project that was completed in 2021?

 

[lolander]

I still wonder about that. If there were all these bad things going on, why did they stay just to the point of not winning the homophobia fight with a volunteer? Seems like they went along with a lot up til that point.

Why do people stay in bad relationships, keep their lousy jobs they don't enjoy, accept to endure unfulfilling arrangements? There are no good reasons but we humans tend to do these things a lot.

I'm counting down to my early retirement - 4 weeks to go!

Hubby retired a few years ago and has been keen for me to join him but I wasn't in any hurry to leave a job I love. Since Covid though, it's made me think that there is more to life than work and luckily we are in a position for me to be able to do that. My brother died suddenly at 51yrs and didn't get to enjoy his retirement so I'm planning on enjoying it for both of us. I will miss it (although I will continue as a governor and will also be involved with my favourite part of the job on a voluntary basis.) but now I look forward to holidays out of term time, spending time with the grandchildren and being able to pick them up from school occasionally, ( a fourth grandchild due next month) , time to spend on hobbies and plans to take watercolour and calligraphy classes. The way numbers of positive cases of Covid for children and staff are rising convinces me that I have made the right decision. One class was missing 14 children today and a third of our staff following positive tests.

My 72 year old brother has a rather hefty pony tail/man bun -- it just starts much further BACK !

Still have a good head of hair with a hint of grey. It's actually as curly as Flips, except I cut mine short.
Nothing worse as a child when mum was stopped and people would coo over my curly hair.
One of my brother's also has curly hair and the other two have straight hair.

O.k. now....these tests are getting too hard!

 

[Heathcliffe]

renewal of the vows? Towards tattlers of course, not his wife

Oh no...I don't even know these Fleuries, who the heck are they? I cannot possibly watch all kinds of vlogs, too boring, but I did watch Dan today! I like Dan. And I enjoy that he and Ann Marie get on so well. They are the new Ant&Dec! Just funnier (does not take much) and better looking (does not take much either) If I ever watch GAG then send me to an asylum in a very straight jacket.

I wonder if Amaury is going to bring his dogs with him. He was very proud pointing them out I thought. If he is staying for any length of time, he wouldn't want to leave them behind.

He might have kindly left them to his ex. He strikes me as a gentleman. Takes one to know one!

And that's another pair of talentless, narcissistic and egregious grifters.

'Big Charity' itself is a big industry now - and itself cynically manipulative.

Thus now I give ONLY to very local charitable efforts. Like the Foodbank (my next door neighbour is the Treasurer) and the local church (5mins walk from my house) that also supports a number of similar local endeavours which a couple of friends help to run.

This means that you can physically see where your donations are going and you can directly speak to the people who both run things and those who benefit.

I don't give to anyone who doesn't have a four star rating on Charity Nav. Couldn't find any of the charities SJ alleges she's sending Caddy @ Shatty (<------ thank you for that, whichever one of you geniuses crafted it) monies to on it.

We adopted the tradition of asking the latest VIP to name the next thread. They can come up with their own idea or choose from other Tattler's suggestions. If there is no new VIP, we can all vote on the titles suggested, using the title with the highest number of votes. We seem to have had so many Tattlers passing the VIP finishing line recently that it it's been a while since we needed to vote.

I am such a humble man, I passed on naming the thread. No big deal for me being a VIP.

Water system for potager, I believe, though haven't seen it working yet, and it may have been disarranged by Dan's doing wheelies with the digger. Started last year or the year before. Fifteen to 16 years previously, no irrigation system or reliable water supply whatsoever.

Yes that watersystem...not gonna start again on that disaster...but...she just had put a drilled waterhole in , many meters deep..on the spot in the garden..with a pump...easy...problem solved...instead off all that digging miles away to that old well up hill, which is never gonna give enough water nor pressure to water the whole garden all at once...

That bit between Armoire and Dan somewhat reminded me of No Life Ryan and Billy Trotter.

Nutkins is taking the manly man vibe to the next level.
No buns, no bags.
Only Balkans Belly & a hint of Blue Spode.

 

[Arfarf]

Right. So I am 10 years postmenopausal ( I know TMI), but!!!!!... the more I see Armoire ( he LIKES my pet name for him....I may start calling him Al in honor of his middle name and easier to spell) the more I likey!
As I like to say....I could just eat him up....along with my blackberry pie!

However!! He seems too normal and hardworking to last at that shithole.
