THINGS ARE MOVING FAST!

Dan and Amaury (Damaury) tackle plumbting, removals and wood worm (basically everything except for gardening and carpentry) and take their relationship to the next level...
This Sunday is a normal Chateau Diaries, as I released a Christie's video on Thursday!
The Chateau Diaries Episode 261 ✨🏰✨
Escape to the chateau with ’The Chateau Diaries’ 🏰

    We have a huge nineteenth century wardrobe that we took apart for transport. It was was an extremely complicated puzzle to put back together. Apparently, there is an order of operation when reassembling these pieces. We got most of it done and then realized that one of the pieces should have been incorporated from the start, so we had to take it all apart again. Luckily, my husband and I share a good sense of humor, so we laughed through the entire process. This was a super fun vlog!

    Stephanie!!!! You have the best people to hang around with and they with you!!! There's always laughs, love, joy, great food and did I say, lot's of love? Dan and Amaury are so much fun to watch as they work together doing basically everything plus their gardening and carpentry. You hit the lottery when they came to Lalande!!! So much talent (and hidden talent) under one roof!!! Your vlogs are getting better and better each time you post, you help a lot of people get their minds off of the sadness we deal with. I lost my husband 2 1/2 months ago, so even for just a 1/2 hour I can smile and laugh along with you all....blessings to all!!!

    Louise I am so sorry to read about the recent loss of your husband. Watching the goings-on at the chateau is indeed a welcome diversion from the difficulties of life. I've been progressively losing mobility and it thrills me to travel some of the French countryside with the lalanders, and to feel joy in being a small part of the progress of the chateau renovations. Kind thoughts and blessings to you. 🙂🕊️

    Same thing I was saying about the heating calculations in a previous video, though I think whoever did these calculations messed up you don't make your calculations based on what you assume would be done in the future or a modern house, for a chateau. chateaus and castles are usually not that great with preventing heat Escape unless proper installation and appropriate windows were installed later on

    I noticed that you were having a problem with the geo thermal system. I’m not a technician. But I’m good a troubleshooting. At first I thought it may be a pressurized valve and it split the radiators. Because they all went at the same time. If it is supposed to be filled with antifreeze and it is rusty like that, it corrosion from water. Untreated river water is highly corrosive. I would make sure those new water lines in the garden weren’t accidentally tapped into. Just an idea anyway….

    Corrosive (raw) water will not effect the flexible pipe. It will corrode every thing metal. Like the inside of the radiators. Galvanized or copper pipe. Flint Michigan water crisis taught me a lot.

I landed on Fried chicken, mashed potatoes with country gravy, collard greens, and homemade rolls. Properly introducing everyone to heart disease. 🤣 Amoury’s slow motion already has all the lady’s hearts working overtime.

Lots more organized. Love your videos. Thanks for all of the hard work that goes into them. And for the access to other chateau owners YT channels as well.
