The Chateau Diaries: HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
All of the Lalanders join together to create a beautiful New Year's Eve party. Each person has a different role - Marie is in charge of cocktails, Michael Potts is on entertainment, Nati and Philip are laying the table, Selmar is decorating the Grand Salon, and Ruth and I are in charge of the main course. We unite together to welcome 2021 in style!!!

Nick’s Marie seems like such a delightful & fun soul. I’m glad we get a bit of her again. I love the energy Michael Potts brings when he’s there as well. Such a lovely bunch of people to ring the new year in with.
I admire about Stephanie that although she loves to glam up to the max, she is also quite happy to appear in scragged-up hair and unglamorous clothes. Good on her for that confidence and naturalness. 🇦🇺

We got spoiled bcos we saw so much of them earlier in the year. Hope ☄Lady Isabelle & Sir Percy☄ as well as Scotman👨🎨 are all happy, healthy & safe abroad. (Wishing the best for Kat Tomaz, Mandy, Hanni & other former volunteers too!) Looking forward to their return in 2021.

you really need to collect the red wood it costs a fortune to buy , and get a tree surgion to see if the rest of the tree is rescuable or if it needs to come down too , they are how ever pretty sturdy trees , collect all the wood thats only fallen because of storm , its free wood and free is my favourite price , lol

Loved meeting organic Stephanie walking in the woods and transformed into dazzling Stephanie for the New Years Eve party. Both Stephs are lovely! All the best for Lalande in 2021!!
I love how Marie say’s every flower is her favourite 😆🥰
I was SO hoping we'd get another dance routine from Philip and Selmar I've kept the episode with the dance routine , Stephanie I'm sure you could master Philips dance and wear that tassel dress from the show you were in a while ago
I love this bit about the glasses sanding; I think I’m a bit more like Stephanie and Phillip and would be excited to open them up and start sanding them
I love when Michael Potts is back at the château - especially when he is in his sweety mood! It would be lovely to have Isabelle and Hanni back soon. And it was nice that Hash (sp?) visited; he seems so kind. 😺... (You are still 1st favorite though Selmar darling. ❤️)

It is fantastic that Limoges still manufactures porcelain in France! Sadly, all the Northern European brand have relocated their production to Asia. The craftsmanship of the manufacture of ceramics is lost. It is very short-sighted; Hurrah to France! Happy New Year to you all, and thank you for your entertainment. It is wonderful to follow your Lalande restorations. Happy to be able to contribute little as a Patreon.
Now, Stephanie, this is my kind of video! There's lots of fun, class, culture, playful teasing, lessons in glassware, friendly banter, and no vulgarity. Keep those coming in 2021. Happy new year everyone at Lalande.
