Hmmm....kinda like Stephanie's accountant...and perhaps the taxman!!!
Come on Taxman
That “Christmas tree erection” is about the only erection Snorts could induce! 😆

Snorts having issues “getting the tree up!”…

Very warped - but I imagine
MPK misses Spain so much, he's doing his own impression of the Caga Tio!

Question for Tattlers...if your Christmas tree is too tall do you cut the top or the bottom off to make it fit?
Also do you make the same mistake next year?

All those grifted shopping bags and they end up buying 'bag for life' bags for yet more baubles.

Can't believe more baubles were bought. Whilst stating everything was €90 only, what about last year's haul in the attic?

Has she lost her mind?
If Mummykins gets mad at the Dutch Boyfriend, then La Jarvis might not be able to be in a relationship with him anymore... :sneaky:

As I reported earlier, he does not only wear SJ clothes, shoes and boots INSIDE the HMN, but when he goes to Emmaus on Saturday he flaunts around in those too to attract attention. Locals can't be bothered to even raise an eyebrow though, as I'm sure he was aiming at. They just ignore the shameful twit, which is in everyones best interest, I believe.
Ugh! He sounds so obnoxious!

As I sit in bed in my hospital room with COVID, on my 69th birthday. I’m scared I’m pissed and just don’t know what to do.

all very freaky

Some of the witty comments on here will hopefully lift your spirits, which is part of the healing process. You are in the best place and the nurses will do their best to help you get well as soon as possible. Drug treatment for Covid are so much better now. Just laugh with us at the silly goings on at the chateau and let us know how you are. I had Covid in March 2020, but I was very lucky I did not need to be hospitalised, I was 69 too and very scared, but it was like flu and although I felt really unwell and the cough exhausting, I recovered within 10 days. I isolated myself from my husband as I have room to do that, Ironically I loved watching the Chateau Diaries while I was in bed. They were much better then and fun to watch. I hope you make a quick recovery, get home soon but do let us know how you are doing ❤

I can't believe how a 46 year old would still allow herself to be told what to do by her mother or be afraid of her.
I can understand why Isabelle was cross about the plates and her pearls. They are her things . She had every right to be annoyed. It was stupid of Stephanie to let BJJ use the plates.
But really, what a strange mother/daughter relationship if Isabelle can decide who SJ dates. You bring a child up, you pick up the pieces when they make mistakes but at 46?? My sons are in their early 40s. They are grown men with their own lives. I still worry about them of course. I would not tell them what to do, though I give them advice if they ask for it or I see they need it . There is something very awry with SJ and Isabelle's relationship.

I loved the Pink Toile Tree or whatever it is they want to call it. Good job on that one, surprisingly.

Andi should be the one with a patron for her art! She has a wonderful talent!

The whole drama over the height of the tree was really dumb.
I actually liked this vlog too. I still can't see what toile has to do with Christmas, but the ornaments they made were lovely and I liked the pink theme.
I hope this post doesn't run into my others. I can't seem to put them on separately, I guess beavuse nur many people are up and about and posting yet.

Apologies for the errors but I seem to have lost the editing feature on my posts.

Do you have someone to watch over you there? I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I pray you’ll get well. Make them give you all the drugs. Rest as much as you can. You need all your strength to fight. Ask to be shown breathing exercises to help clear your lungs. It’s also easier to lay on your stomach, it’s easier to breathe. You can do the exercises as much as you want and it will help. Try to let us know you’re okay everyday if you can. You’ve got everything you need right there, just don’t let them ignore you. It will be okay.
Oh yes, they have to rotate you to on your tummy -at least 6 hrs on your tummy, literally 100 face down, they have a special extension for the bed-like a massage table thingy

One of the things I did from my sick bed was joining their Patreon and binge watching all their videos.

Surprise surprise, they actually upload updates of the properly planned work they are doing, as opposed to the Willy nilly world of la la land. it’s so nice to see someone doing things right! (Mike Holmes would be proud! 😆)
They always have something in the pipeline and at the same time are working on their previous project… you know… like sane people do!

It is quite sad and speaks volumes that someone doing the bare minimum of an acceptable job in shattoverse stands out so much 🤦🏻‍♀️
I also absolutely love that almost every one who does work on their chateau is local. They are truly members of their community.

The crazy lady in the middle of nowhere should take a lesson or 10.
Miss Jarvis will need to up her game very soon. Most CD viewers also watch the fleuries. If they keep pushing out finished projects SJ's patreons will be upset. Tiktok 🙂

The fleuries need to get a swimmingpool for next summer. That will draw families to their B&B. Pools are equaliy important for summer rentals as rooms or gites.

My business brain hurts when I see opportunities not being used.

Get well soon!

And a fantastic location! 2 hours from Paris, close to the shore, 5 minutes to a historic town ...

I LOVE the appearances by Benoit and Nathan!
Our daughter and my sibs AND my parents 😶 ummm I was not invited 😶 Ooooo Kayyy moving on... but Honfleur is supposed to be AMAZING! And with fantastic restaurants too!! And Rouen is close by also! The beaches of Normandy also.... it should be said that my mother can be a bit if a "oh, its great, where is the gift shop kinda gal".... sooo... we really wanted our daughter to truly understand WHAT HAD HAPPENED there, the sacrifices made, why.. so😳 in a totally questionable parenting move😳 we sat her down.... and uh.... forced her to watch the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan 😶 To be fair, we had tried explaining it, and it didn't seem to be sinking in and .... she was a week bit young for that... so... visuals are best😬 the good news, she got it 👍 and she did ezplain it to my mother. She was 10 🙄 but! As a Gen Z gal, she does give almost everyone daily lectures about what we have done or said wrong. I, as both the resident witch AND the fun sponge get to COUNTER the Gen Z lecture with my loveable Bonne mots! 🥰 Things like: no, you can no longer eat and/or enjoy Nutella 😑 it uses vast amounts of palm oil- they get the palm oil from raping the forest where the oraganutangs live - then I show her the soul crashing video of the sweet oraganutang trying to fight off the moster machine and getting swept away.... so, while I boycott the most delicious treat I have ever eaten, the reason I gained so much weight in lockdown- I do get to counter woke culture with its very own medicine with a delicious snack that they all want, and make them all (they being her entire high school) into hypocrites if they eat it.... so I'm going to call that: game, set and match. Now.... if they could reformulate Nutella-I would really bleeping appreciate it🙃

For some unknown reason I’m in a good mood tonight… it certainly isn’t the 34567 days of constant rain we had in Raincouver…

ok Paula… this was funny!

I think BJJ was born to be a Butler! But is starting off as a Footman.
Well, he’s little in the way of a formal education, knows nothing about anything much at all. Even a footman might be beyond him as snorting is not encouraged when in service.

Yes. I have written that before too, they might have had to buy their chateau at a higher price, due to the great location, but on the long term it could be profitable, especially if they have gîtes as well. For the moment a swimming pool is not as urgent, they are near the seaside, but it could be an additional bonus in future. And yes, I like Benoît and his son too, bonus: French! Do I want to become Patreon of the Fleuries? Still not sure, I don't like the begging, but at least they are quite transparent about what happens with the money, and I like what they want to do with the longhouses. So, they have quite a bonus points compared to SJ and her motley crew. The only thing which could be interesting: a Benoît vs. Amaury showdown.

I hope you don't really believe those cut out paper baubles will return next year, do you? This whole thing was concocted to please the craft loving grannies that are paying for the expensive stuff and will go straight in the bin a.s.a.p. SJ doesn't do crafts and in contrast to what she wants her fans to believe, wishes they would stop sending her the tat and send her only the expensive stuff instead. All her enthusiasm over self crafted stuff is completely faked, all of it.


As I reported earlier, he does not only wear SJ clothes, shoes and boots INSIDE the HMN, but when he goes to Emmaus on Saturday he flaunts around in those too to attract attention. Locals can't be bothered to even raise an eyebrow though, as I'm sure he was aiming at. They just ignore the shameful twit, which is in everyones best interest, I believe.


I doubt very much Andi gets a dime. It's her personal gift to SJ to help her restore that wonderful ancient shittoo and bring it back to life. I'll ask around but you shouldn't get your hopes up, I doubt any of the money goes to Andi.
Clara - are you Annaliese in disguise?

Worse, it's just how she is. As far as she's concerned, everything in that HMN is hers to use, no matter who actually owns it. Remember, there are no locks on any of the rooms (except hers). I guess this is the reason IJ hides her valuables, not because she's afraid of burglars but because of her own daughter, not having any respect for other peoples properties. I have personally witnessed SJ sending one of her slaves volunteers into the room of paying guests who were out for dinner, just to check on their belongings.
She's got a serious problem !!

The party was more fun in the original.

My fingers were poised in today's preview to ask Isabelle if Phillip had chipped her china. But she jumped on Stephanie for stealing the china and her pearls without asking before I had a chance. Touche! Stephanie has always guarded that china- they never ever use it because it's precious to Isabelle- so what was that stupid squirrel thinking?
Divide and conquer

He’s had a direct line in his vision since day one ☝

Isabel is his last hurdle and what better way to mark his territory than use all her China

She has an apartment - store it there

Not in the main farmhouse
He’s also reminding Isabel - she’s a visitor … NOT a resident 😈

And yes 🙌 I’d say THE PAIR of them decided to do it publicly…. No doubt their already sleeping in Isabel s bed
The apartment has independent heating 😈

Can't blame you, I am a Patreon of even lajarvis myself.
But who buys a chateau with 2! extra ruin buildings knowing those must be at least another million to restore without having funds for it?
No, the REAL question is - WHY THE duck- has she not sold: her London flat, the South of France Property,, the Property in South Africa- not the one mummy and perry are in now, the one DADDY owned.... why wouldn't you just be a NORMAL ASSHOLE and have the one place to live OR APPLIED TO THE GOVERNMENT and get a grant to restore the chapel roof, or it's interior? OR why hasn't she really made a go of running a really- why is it closed so much - why so little merch, why sooo many places for her, her friends and family but not a tit ton for guests? Why not go back to London and get A bleeping JOB for a year or two?
I will tell you why: the 1st reason is she is she is bleeping lazy and she doesn't want to work and she never has-a boss? 🤣🤣🤣 up before noon? 🤣🤣🤪 the same goes for running a bnb -no, it's really just a place for her friends and family! You hear her right?? EVERY YEAR I go to Venice for Carnival!! Once a month I go to London! Once a month I go to Paris etc etc etc etc.... ya, it's her jumping off point and getting to say I LIVE IN A CASTLE COME AND STAY AT THE SHITOO!! Lastly she has never gone to the government for a grant because-and they currently have 4000 projects, some raising extra funds, I found 1000 with just grants, it's because they want you to use French workers, QUALIFIED WORKERS, they want you to get several quotes -not just " I heard he's the guy so I will wait two fuxking years for him" and they want you to stick to a budget, stick to a timeline, and get the God damn thing FINISHED. Oh yeah... they want a quality product when it's finished. It does not need to be listed NOR does it need to be open to the public on a regular basis. Ex: it could be open once or twice a year for a special service day. I mean -isn't that what she says she wants?? A place filled with life live and laughter?? Or just the people SHE let's behind her tattered velvet rope and ONLY if you suck up to her enough and tell her how BEAUTIFUL she is and how BEAUTIFUL her SHITOO is and how TALENTED M. Pitiful is etc and if you pass her bleeping test... you may enter but di t forget the fuxking fee for sweating/freezing your ass off, or waiting a million years for your "dinner" made by unskilled slaves with questionable skills and hygiene. And that will be €200 a night -hot water may or may not be included-please be attractive, but not too attractive, do not be an attractive female you get than I am (anyone else notice this-ZERO knock outs-and knock outs in their 20's I mean... they are EVERYWHERE- can't swing a dead cat in LA without hitting a dozen - or TX or VANCOUVER!!) if you meet all of these requirements-I may... or may not let you in... also... English is a must. Also, even if you are a paying guest, please volunteer all of your time and talents. While you are here I will oooo and ahhh, but once you are gone, I shall never mention you again. You will go to the basement with the architect and the goat cheese man. Good night.

This is a gossip site, people can assume and say what they want so long as they follow the site guidelines.

Personally, I'm neither a hater nor a supporter of Dan the Gardener (and my fiancee is a fan) but he isn't immune to gossip.
It is no different from when people here assume that there are issues in SJ's, MPK's or in the life of anyone else in the chateauverse.
People are free to interpret what they see on his whatever he puts out there and express what they think here.
To tell people to stop is a form of moderation, and blocking people who disagree with us makes us no different from the intolerant chateau superfans.

Let people dislike or defend any chateauverse character as they please.
Thank the lord, a person of quality and character-bless you my child ❤

If I wanted to censor my speech I would talk with my mother. If I want to fight with people, I go to Christmas dinner. I don't want either if those things so I come here. Can I get another Amen.
