It's an act. It was almost impossible to graduate from Oxford with ADHD 25 years ago, nobody knew how to accommodate and help with their difficulties in learning then.

Yeah she knows how to play her audience. The only thing she suffers from is being a spoiled damn brat. It's just an easy way to milk money out of patreons.

There are different functioning levels with ADHD. I'm currently doing my master's degree unmedicated.
It is challenging but it helps to focus if the subject is interesting. Uninteresting stuff tends to get neglected/forgotten.
What was her degree in?

I was purely speculating on something I had observed. I didn't think I needed expert opinion to back up my own as this is tattle.life

It was meant to be just some food for thought since I haven't noticed anyone else mentioning that and discussing it here Any experts are welcome to give their opinion but none of them can give real diagnosis here either as she's not their patient.

Manor and Maker could learn something about reviewing/promoting local restaurants from Rob from Château de la Grifferaie. He showed the outdoor daily specials, the sign, the location and pics of each course. Looked simple and delicious! How not to p.ss off the locals and your neighbour!

O M G !!!!! There is a new show coming out on Discovery+ about competitive Table Setting. Shit you not. Can you imagine snorts & or dear Nicolas Fairford in a smack down. Now THIS is an advent gift
OMG, indeed! Parrfect for BFF and a great suggestion on there for him - taxidermy on the table; Edd's present with the squirrel and the seagull was meant for this! There are probably plenty of other little creatures, such as bats; rats, hedgehogs, and peachicks lying dead around the chateau. Perhaps he could supplement his newly found YT income by starting a taxidermy service. The kitchen table, already used for a variety of purposes, could be used to try out his skills. SJ doesn't care about health and safety so nothing to worry about there. I'm sure there must be a sharp knife with a Spode handle somewhere.

Exactly! To add to the discussion, I think she might be somewhere on the bi-polar scale. Many people with that show one pole more than the other. SJ mostly shows the manic side but there are sometimes hints of the other, e.g. sitting by the bonfire, and when she is very stressed or on the flight to Barbados. I think she has mentioned that she has suffered from depression. If she is on medication for anything like that and combines it with alcohol, she will not be in a very good state.

A majority of the tattlers agree that SJ is at least suffering (well she isn't suffering from it, but we all are really) from a narcissistic personality disorder. Whether she's a narc with or without ADHD could be the salt in an already overly spiced but still rather tasteless dish...

How many VIPs are there currently posting here? I guess more than the dozen, the rabid CD grannies claim?

I’m absolutely baffled…how in the world did these people become the “experts” in “all things chateau” and “refined living?” And who are they to give anyone advice on anything? And why would anyone listen? Its all a scam…a grift. It’s a case study in chance, circumstance, and luck.

Oooh! I would love for BJJ to be on that show and have his lackluster, gaudy settings get torn to shreds on t.v. by professional etiquette people ( what do you call them????). I would love to see his face as he is getting judged and SJ running to him as he sobs to console her baby. Well, his bio mom would pamper him too.

Quote from Ky Bourbon, previous thread: "I can’t believe how patronizing Snorts’ is…how to set a table? His target audience has been setting tables for twice as long as he’s been alive! They can do it better, too…with their eyes closed".

I agree, and isn't this what so many young, so-called influencers do, whatever it is they are talking about? They jump on the bandwagon and teach their grandmothers to suck eggs. From doing this, they make thousands. I find it infuriating when so many others work hard to gain qualifications and skills and earn their living by doing a proper job. I suppose I am too out-dated thinking like this. Apparently, loads of teenagers now aspire to become YT influencers because all they need to do is pick a topic and sit in their bedroom talking a lot of rubbish into their phones. Surely, this can't go on for much longer. Their supporters must be absolutely gullible and brainless! Nichloas Fairford is better at it than BJJ and has more taste but is just as patronising in thinking that he is teaching all his adult followers something!

But it’s never stopped speculation on here from observation on you tube, for at least the last 12 months. After all this a pure gossip site

Good morning darling Yenta Tartlets! You have been busy little gossips and agents!

Thread #92 thank yous and congratulations to those already mentioned.

@Jikki2 you are fabulous! You are recap royalty. Do you prefer the title Queen or King of Summaries?

A Merry 5th Day of Tatvent to you all!

I enjoy watching Chateau de la Grifferaie, but I have to admit to getting frustrated with watching their efforts to get back and forth between two countries with travel rules and restrictions changing all the time.

Absolutely agree. For example, so many times we’ve seen Teabag say things or give advice on his vlog that’s incorrect. What’s Teabeg’s credentials? He was a party boy. I don’t think he has a higher education (university?). He doesn’t have experience in construction. His artwork is amateur…he’s not a juried artist. He has no professional training as a chef or cook (but he owns that AGA!). He doesn’t have expertise in antiques from years of experience working in that field. He doesn’t have business acumen, can’t seem to handle finances. His most valuable asset is a stove. No sane bank would ever give him a loan. Can’t or won’t obtain a drivers license, so is dependent on others for transportation. And yet so many comments from viewers saying “how amazing you are!” and “how talented!” Yes, his supporters are gullible. The only talent MPK’s got is con artist.
