Wow. What a tone to take with a Patron. I assume this reply is from Brenda Gibbons.
The comment lamenting the empty frame at the patron’s home (no signed card) and the terse reply are gone, sanitised, deleted. Concerted effort to moderate opinion continues...Wow. What a tone to take with a Patron. I assume this reply is from Brenda Gibbons.
This is a perfect example of ham-handed and amateurish social media management which will, if allowed to continue, cause permanent damage to SJ's ability to monetize through Patreon. There's really no excuse for a four month delay in sending one card and if I were a Patron who got a response like this, I would immediately cancel. I think it is certainly more important for SJ to sort her social media representation right now than her closets.
The people who freak out about their postcards in facebook comments are the worst though. It's just been a solid year of one after the other, old women complaining about their postcard. All that complaining is just going to result in preprinted cards, so they might as well start doing that now and hire a printer remotely to send them out. Anyone expecting to be successful will hire someone to keep facebook scrubbed of petty complaints and engage as little as possible. Facebook is a cesspool of instability and old women asking to speak to the manager in front of a whole crowd. I honestly want to put her in touch with the My Favorite Murder hosts so they can tell her what not to do with facebook, how to approach gifts and fan art, etc.Wow. What a tone to take with a Patron.

Word on the street got to her I imagine. Good enough reason to remove after her awful posts. Good thing it’s screenshot on here.Certainly looks like Ms Sadie has either removed her FB profile or has hidden behind privacy settings. The sanitation of CD-related social media continues. This is a direct affront to us here on Tattle. We will be reduced to commenting only on the released videos. I think somebody is taking overall control of the social media space . . . something we identified that needed doing a while ago. They will be ‘locked down’ and controlled in the media space, just like the Strawbridges, before we know it!
It was the right and sensible thing for her to do, as is the recent ongoing ‘scrubbing’ of Chateau Diaries / Doing it Ourselves social media. I’m sure we here will still be able to find enough to take a critical look at.Word on the street got to her I imagine. Good enough reason to remove after her awful posts.

The woman on the far left looks like Sophie Wessex, wife of Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex.I think Selmar might be a time traveler...

And her uncle (?) reminds me of someone else...
Thanks for the perspective @witchgrass. I have no idea what goes on in the Facebook groups. I will also check out My Favorite Murder.The people who freak out about their postcards in facebook comments are the worst though.

Just as an example, this is some quality fan art. Just clips of stories from their podcast but animated. They had to get a handle on their brand before this could happen though.
And what a user name!My user name on here is also my username on Facebook...damn....
If you change your user name quickly, we won't be able to tell if it's you or Valerie returning to us.My user name on here is also my username on Facebook...damn....
The woman in the middle is not a Petherick, I think that's Gwendoline Mouchel. I have never seen a picture of her looking so heavy. She is not yet Billy's wife yet (according Billy in a recent Chateau Life video) though Sheree has apparently claimed they are legally married.And what a user name!
I think all the Petherick offspring that we know about are good-looking. They do seem to have a tendency to put on weight quite early in life, though, Michael being a case in point.
I wouldn’t worry about SJ too much, she’s a master in playing her cards anyway and always ends up with the right peeps taking care of all her silly needs.I think running a chambre d'hote is hard work enough without dealing with all the drama of putting on weddings or the administrative hassle of running a shop. I would not want to do it.
Vlogging on YT was really a stroke of genius for SJ. If she is smart, she has set her sights on something that generates YT-like income without all the hard graft: cookbooks, wallpaper, wrapping paper, cards, towels, carpets, Christmas music. These are all things that people can buy on a repeat basis. If she plays her cards right--and her brand does not become too damaged by permitting amateurs like Brenda Gibbons or Cbomb run her other social media--SJ could be set up for life.
Stephanie has no interest in any of the animals. She never strokes Diesel or Ruby, just mentions their names for the sake of the viewers. Selmar is the only one who really looks after them. To SJ, they are just more cast members to add to her surrounding subjects.I just finished both SJ & MP videos and I'm so relieved that Christmas is over. I couldn't believe how happy I was to hear the regular ol' "I'm Stephanie" theme song. I did a little comfort wiggle down into my chair. (I know, I know. My dog lies next to me with an audible groan when he hears it too.) I need to do all the things she's about to do and the piles won't be much smaller, so I can't really clutch pearls about it. I've been in the same house with a full basement for 26 years, so there's a lot of things to go through. I do a good job of hiding it, but don't open a closet. I'm just happy my daughter gets less sentimental about the things she left behind as the years go by, so now I can send her photos and the answer is usually "toss it out". I really appreciate the way Stephanie communicates with Selmar and helps him finish sentences he doesn't always have a translation for. She's really lucky to have him because he looks at things like a puzzle to be solved and that house is kind of a puzzle. I also love how SJ addresses Ruby loudly like a non-cat person and Ruby startles, then Selmar does a low sweet voice and Ruby answers "brrrt"I love that smart ginger tom.
MPs video was also a nice change, not too slow moving and still a little boring. Michael was funny. He looks good and the pasty sheen of his 2020 hangover is gone. The puppy is getting real cute, and Tina is a whole goddamn mood, "growling, snoring.." me too, girl. Me too. Keep up that cute animal content Pethericks.
i am jet to learn about Strawbridges, anyone who can fill me in in 3 sentences?Certainly looks like Ms Sadie has either removed her FB profile or has hidden behind privacy settings.

I can't help but wonder if Michael is staying away because of Philip. I certainly would.I was watching some older vlogs from early last year and Michael was in them visiting and hanging out with Stephanie.
Just for entertainment I much prefer Michael than Philip. Michael and Stephanie get so giddy with laughter and just have lots of fun together. Would love to see Michael again at the chateau.
Feeling overwhelmed at the thought of the job she has clearing the chateau. At the house meeting sounds like they want to get more organised maybe having tours and that.
I was thinking if the place was properly ran with a manager and it was open to tours and weddings and had its own little cafe where u can buy homemade bread and jams with fruit from their own gardens. There are other castles, manors, chateaus and very fancy hotels that do this.
They should be having lots wedding's booked and a cafe with tables and chairs outside and tours. For a historical home it would have to be very cleared out no junk just beautiful historic furnished rooms. That's what it should be like. Lots of work to get there.
