Absolutely brilliant. Hope someone will put these questions on the radar!
Absolutely brilliant. Hope someone will put these questions on the radar!I can imagine hair being torn out by the accountant and his number-crunching sidekicks at the knotted knitting of record keeping and transactions.
If I were a Patron, there are questions I would raise in next week's Q&A even in the absence of finalised accounts which should be available to Associaition members (Patrons). In no particular order and by no means the only questions:
Stephanie says she wants everything to be transparent and clear cut. She has so little grasp of - or interest in - boring but important detail, which she thinks will all sort itself out and everything will be tickettyboo, that her idea of transparent is what anybody else would describe as black out curtains.
- Confirmation that Patreon funds are remitted direct to the Association bank account.
- If not, why not?
- What is the audit trail from Patreon (by whatever means - interbank transfer, PayPal, etc) to funds reaching the Associaition account, to ensure the amount received by the Association reconciles with the amount remitted by Patreon (net of their fees/charges), allowing for forex fluctuations.
- Salaries (not contractors) - how many, if any, are employed by the Association, what are the roles, what remuneration - i.e. does Natty undertake Associaition admin duties/record-keeping/basic book-keeping for which she is paid solely for that role, do "directors" draw salaries.
- If salaries are paid, presumably employer legal/tax obligations have been adhered to.
- Contractors: details of contractors used by the Association and a breakdown of cost of works undertaken, completed, ongoing: Digger Dan, Nick the Tree Surgeon, Builder Ian, terrace people, etc. Dan was paid by Association funds but no longer? Amaury?
- Professional fees: breakdown of accountancy fees billed to the Association to date, ditto legal fees, architect, surveyor (engaged to inspect the terrace and arrange repairs) [that went well], surveyor from Belgium who mapped the lake and produced detailed plans (levels) of all outside areas.
- What is Davey's role: is he retained by the Associatiion as a consultant for an agreed fee. He has spent a considerable amount of time producing a series of detailed plans for hard and soft landscaping of the kitchen garden, the courtyard and other areas of the grounds. And now he appears to have turned his hand to draughtsmanship amd design for the back kitchen, kitchen, etc.
- Has Davey provided detailed costings for every element of the garden design scheme/s, hard landscaping and planting.
- Is the Associaition "management" satisfied that all activities meet the critieria within the Articles of Association. Has advice been sought from a professional other than the accountant.
That’s the thing about customers - they do depend on you. SJ has a product, she provides a service from which she derives a not insubstantial income and, in this day of Patreon etc, it’s all public.SO sad that these people actually depend on her... on HER!... so F&$cking sad...
Is it finished but!?Well I hope Mummy was ok with it as Snort mentioned in the gift grab he was wearing one of her broches. Also with the new restrictions, Selmar and Tatty might not be there for New Year to cut the ribbon on the finished downstairs loo; or will they even bother now?
i bet all her juwels are fake...i never knew one woman who would leave her real jewels behind...I noticed that. SJ and Philip must be in Isabelle's room raiding her jewellry box! What a cheek!I wonder when Squirrel boy will start going through her wardrobe and wearing her clothes on camera!
Just watched the latest Pethericks video “Bending the Zinc.” Billy was very hands-on and knows how to use the metal bending tool for the roof pieces…I was impressed. He actually IS doing it himself! No sign of Michael.
Well it’s not the Grand Salon nor the winter salon or the petite Salon. I wonder if it’s the Marquis’s salon #notasalonView attachment 928381
has anyone else seen this
WT actual F!!There is a current estimate of 100-140 k per apartment .
He will be Lord of the Manor soon ..... slowly , slowly catchy monkey !!!Anyone find it creepy that yak yak has to be front and centre
And Stephanie is now the side show
I have another suggestion...he should change the name to "How to make promises that you have no intention of keeping, while still raking in free money".He should change the name of his channel to Occasionally Doing it Ourselves
500 euros for every 100000 you have a year...It's called negative interests here. If you have more than 100000 Euro in your account you don't get any interests but you pay some to the bank.
Wasn't that a big ol' box of shit!? I'm sure she secretly glad most of it was broken.ugly figurines and a big box full of someone's discarded, crap. If she doesn't throw this shit out, SJ is going to have to start renting a storage locker to keep this crap.
I have the feeling Aunt Chantal has to bring the christmasturkey with her from England..can you imagine not to have the turkey from England...Never going to happen!
That is the weirdest thing my north American ears have heard here... and I've heard plenty! LOLIt's called negative interests here. If you have more than 100000 Euro in your account you don't get any interests but you pay some to the bank.
Percy is a few fries short of a happy meal. Looks like IJ is getting very defensive. I wonder why?Oh mini apron is on the warpath

What did Nicol say to push her buttons so very hard?Oh mini apron is on the warpath
NEver heard of this practice. I am shocked. Might as well keep your money under your mattress. What I know is, the more money you have in the bank the more interest you get. Obviously there are different kinds I accounts with different interest rates and other stipulations but generally the longer you keep the money in the bank the more you make.500 euros for every 100000 you have a year...
