In 2024, L. rufescens has been blamed for the deaths of two individuals in Italy; one a 52-year-old policeman from Palermo, bitten by L. rufescens, according to a local Sardinian newspaper,[12] and the other a 23-year old male, who died more than a month after being bitten, according to ANSA (Agenzia Nazionale Stampa Associata), the "National Associated Press Agency'' I was bitten several months ago and only after prompt treatment by a prof at Toulouse saved my finger. It has taken months to recover even with treatment.
@@LstanfieldOf course not. He's Stephanie's sugar baby. Part of the deal is he does no work and gets to wear Stephanie's clothing when no one is looking.
Please say Dave had the spider bite checked by a doctor!!! Some spider bites can cause necrotic tissue. His wound looks like it could be infected. 🙏 he heals quickly!
I was bitten by a brown recluse a few months ago. i thought I would lose my finger. The skin necrosis and you can lose your life or a limb if untreated. I went to three doctors before going to a specialist prof in toulouse Rangueil hospital where I had antibiotics and medical compresses.
Took me months to get over a spider bite. I am praying for him. That he don't lose that arm. He needs to be on antibiotics. And use an antibiotic cream.
Dave is a person in the Chateau who work behind the scene but w/out him everything gets topsy-turvy. He worked in the kitchen, doing the internet and now the fire alarms. Dave worked but not being filmed yet he does a great job. Stay safe Dave.
Yes Dave as others have said please get the spider bite checked out. I got bitten by a spider on my ankle years ago, my whole foot swelled up, I couldn’t get my shoes on for weeks. I had four lots of antibiotics and antibiotic cream and anti inflammatories for 6 weeks. It took over 2 months for my foot to be properly back to normal. You’re too precious to get sick. Stephanie you have a fantastic figure so you can wear anything and always look fabulous.
I have always longed for this magical little kitchen to be painted in its entirety a pale blue. All of the walls, cabinetry, etc the same color. It would create such a clean and complimentary back drop for the all of the Spode and will visually feel much more restful and tidy in such a busy, bustling space. The other elements in the space - range cookers, wooden table, flooring, etc will maintain enough depth and layers to balance the same color everywhere else. I can see it now in mind’s eye and it is lovely! Benjamin Moore Brittany Blue
Was Gerry's room (or suite) ever completed at the Château ? I think it was started during one of the many Channel4 visits and was meant to be a home from home for him.
So glad Amaury is feeling ok. ❤❤❤ It is a serious injury and it looks like he is being sensible, allowing himself to recover. They are a beautiful couple. ❤❤️🤗🤗❤️❤️
*Please do get Dave to a doctor as soon as possible.* Do you have Brown Recluse spiders in France? They also love to hide in wood piles. My dear Mother was bitten by one years ago. It looked very much like Dave's bite. The venom causes tunnels of necrotic tissue. She was prescribed special debriding powder that is used in hospital burn units and had to have whirlpool treatments to aid in the healing and to stop the spread of the necrotic infection. It can be incredibly serious. Please do not delay getting him treatment!!!
barbarasmith2693 that is what he said he was carrying a pile of wood when he was bitten, Natti show the spider, never saw a spider like it before and what you said about the powder that is used in hospital burn units,thought he was burned when he showed Stephanie it good that you all viewers can gave/pass on valuable imformation on these sshows
I am concerned about Dave. That spider bite appears to be infected. The venom from some spiders can cause, as another viewer noted, necrosis.which is death of tissue/muscle. Also, the poison can travel into the blood stream.
Omg everyone is saying see a Dr but I'm sure he has. He is not a child. If not then he is a silly man. Not everything is told or shared on the vlogs. He loves he job and his life ☺
Philip’s blues for the kitchen cupboard are way too dark! You are right, Stephanie..light, light blue…it should almost look white in the can…just did my bedroom in that color. Love it. Chalky white with a touch of blue!
I am so happy that the cupboard got painted! I agree with Stephanie that the light color is cheerful and reflects more light into the room. Please don’t paint it a darker color! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
A few years ago I was away from a project I was working on for a few days and when I returned, asked one of the owners of the business about the whereabouts of another of the owners whom I didn't see. I was told he had died just a couple days prior of a spider bite he thought was fine and did not have seen by a Doctor. One day here, the next day not. Have the bite tended to. Don't presume it's getting better on it's own!
I was bitten by a brown recluse (brown widow) years back, on my neck, just behind & below my ear, in my sleep (I spotted the spider the next day). It started out as a relatively small & painless bite but turned into an infected black hole as the weeks went on, even with antibiotic treatment. I still have a rather substantial scar from it. They are definitely nothing to play around with.
Agreeing with everyone in the comments. I’ve had four serious spider bites in my life. Didn’t notice getting bitten and the bites developed over time. In each instance medical care, prescription creams/ drugs, and antibiotics were critical. The first I almost lost my hand to as I must have gotten bitten when packing to move continents and over the course of a 12 hour flight I was very grateful to the stewardesses that kept me well supplied with ice as my hand swelled and changed color. Immediate trip to the ER and 6+ weeks of recovery later I regained feeling and use of my hand. The second time it was slower and developed over days even with antibiotics the tissue got red, hot and very hard, then the area around the bite turned black. Even though I did eventually heal over many months I still have scars from where the black plugs sort of fell out eventually. Unfortunately, a similar instance happened again a year later in the same old home, again while I was sleeping. Then the fourth was again a similar story on my calf, but I’m not sure how I was bit. The last time I thankfully didn’t get any blackened tissue, but I did run a fever for days and the entirety of my calf got red, hot and hard. Then the skin peeled off sort of like a bad sunburn. I think it was a milder reaction because I was already on antibiotics for bronchitis. 3/4 of those instances happened in November when I was wearing long pants and shirts with socks, sometimes spider bites just happen. It’s important to take them seriously though!
My daughter was bitten on her stomach this summer and it swelled up It was quite painful. Dave probably did go to the doc no harm to do double check if he didn’t. Dave is a unsung hero behind the scenes. 😘
@@beverley1539 I was bit by something and ended up with cellulitis my ankle became swollen red and very itchy, I was on antibiotics for a month Especially with red streaks that's his blood stream ( I think) should be above his heart
@@3_3645 yikes I also seem to have an allergic response to spider bites never been tested per say but I know that I swell blister itch, use a cortisol cream allergy meds if to bad I have ended up in emergency from vomiting diarrhea and hooked up to I V 🐝🇨🇦👋🏻
Stephanie, put a scented dryer sheet in with your clothes in the storage bag so that they will not absorb the plastic smell during the time they are stored. I stored blankets for a time and when I got them out of the storage bags they had a chemical smell from the bags.
I agree have the spider bite as may need antibiotics asap. former RN and had spider bites myself . Take a pen and mark the red outline to see if it progresses further then off to medical .
Viewers have been begging for years for those cupboards to be painted and we were always told that they were original and Stephanie wouldn't paint them. Thank you Jerry for taking the initiative to paint that mess!!
Yes, I'm with Mary and Stéphanie on keeping the cupboards a pale color. Could be a light blue (not the sample's ones). Maybe just do the trims of the rectangles on the doors a darker blue color and the rest a pale blue?
Interesting. I was thinking green like the wall going into the wash area, with yellow panels to match the dish shelves. Maybe would less fingerprints. And interesting door pulls?
I’m so relieved to hear Amaury’s injury was on his non dominant hand, I hope he heals quickly. I’m loving his honesty in the kitchen at the beginning of the video!🤣👏🏻👏🏻
I have always preferred a bright kitchen in blue, white, and yellow; and that is exactly what you have! I agree that the cabinet should be painted in lighter blue colors. The workout clothing looked amazing on you, Stephanie. The first outfit was my favorite.
Can you please give us an update on the heating system? I know there was a tragic accident but we’re still invested to know what has happened since it still looks like it’s not working yet?
Has he gone to the doctor about the spider bit? Some spiders like the brown recluse can cause necrotic tissue damage. If you like the pale color of the cabinet, have you thought of adding a pale blue trim and maybe a decal on the front. Just so it is not so plain. Glad to hear his hand is healing and I too was wondering if he was right-handed or not. I was thinking he dropped the tool and fell on it. Now we all know, thank you.
I live south of Toulouse and got bitten on the finger by a Brown Recluse. If he hasn't gone to urgences for treatment he will be in big trouble. I thought I was going to lose my finger. That arm looks like it is necrosing already. I would be really really concerned.
Jerry... Paint WITH the wood grain not AGAINST it for the best finish. My father use to say: "A great painter is a mediocre carpenter's BEST friend." ❤️🙏
It was so lovely when Philip said you looked like a spy Stephanie and funny at the same time. You look amazing in anything you wear. It’s wonderful to hear that Amaury seems to be healing well. I do hope Dave gets some medical attention and his wound gets better soon.
Thank you for your videos Stephanie, its honestly made me feel like I'm part of a family, even though I've never met you guys, especially with the festive season approaching. Thank you, take care and much love.
Match the kitchen cupboard to the inside of the glass front cabinets with the hanging with cups…. Or just a slightly lighter shade but same tone. Steph, your gym clothes looked great! You do look fabulous when you wear jeans also. I’m glad you’re feeling better & hope Natie is better soon.
You go Percy, always keep original parts. We have a telephone box that we left in my sons front garden when we moved to france, we actually use tractor paint which happened to be the identical colour and seriously hard waring. Love the cabinet in the kitchen, Scott man is awesome Xxx💕
When you loo. k at what that cupboard looked like before Gerry painted, well, now it's beautiful. Way to go Gerry! I would stick with pale and if it's too bland, you could have one of your artistic friends paint a blue pattern on part of it like your dishes. Or just a floral design, with lots of different colored flowers. Maybe stencils of flowers. But I am with you, the clean, light way it looks now is soooooo much better than what it was.
Great idea of a stencil in the panels with the inspiration of the China patterns. At least Gerry got onto the job, someone had to move it on. Some nice handles would be easier to keeping it clean. The doors are made for two toned colors scheme..they have that blue in the Wedgewood room, but Stephanie is right in paler hue’s nicer. Sorry didn’t like Philips attitude of practically imposing his choice.
Dave, I was stung by a nasty spider several years ago. You have my sympathy. I'm not sure we know what kind it was, but my body's reaction was pretty alarming. I was living in Minnesota at the time, which has very few poisonous spiders, so I must have had an allergic reaction to that species. Stephanie, who knew that under those dresses was such a rocking hot body? You look like you've been exercising for years. You picked wonderfully flattering outfits. I'm hoping Nattie and Marie take a turn for the cameras in their new togs, too. Amaury, I pray you have a speedy and full recovery. ❤️ from TX
Interesting about Amaury's scar -- here in the US they use glue more and more often. Makes for a very neat scar - but they warned me with my hip: "the glue is black, don't panic!"
I thought they looked like a brown recluse bites but only thought those were in the U.S. A quick google search revealed they have been found in France in recent years 😬
Many spider bites release toxins that stay in the body before becoming active,please have the bite’s checked and spray the area if necessary. Let us know.
God bless you Gerald! A beautiful chateau deserves bright and beautiful pantry doors. That "patena" was getting very trying. Thank you for taking the intiative.
Surely the buttery yellow colour of the dresser to the side should be in consideration. Its a warmer colour than the blues you are looking at to make a darker corner feel cheerful.
Exactly what Evakinney3152 said. The brown recluse bite causes creeping ulcerations of the skin and you can loose limbs. That looks really bad. The brown spider you showed is VERY close looking to the brown recluse. It can be deadly.
That cupboard has been bugging me forever!! Such a beautiful kitchen, I thought the warm paint was smudged from daily hands. Thanks Gerald for finally dealing with it. So much better! Get well Stephanie. Next trip dose up of vitamin C and zinc 🥰🤗
Good luck with the vacuum bags - I've found that they come out fusty from the lack of air. I prefer packing things away in totes with bags of silica (I make my own from bags of pure silica cat litter - so cheap, but works beautifully) - keeps the dust out and keeps everything from absorbing moisture, but still allows a bit of air. A lot of the time the vacuum sealing fails anyway, especially on the largest bags. They're a bit of a gimmick.
When my sinuses are blocked with a cold or allergies I put peppermint oil drops in a bowl of hot water and put the cloth over my head and hold my head over for a few minutes so that clears my sinuses very well so it’s interesting to see someone else do it because I don’t think I’ve ever seen anybody else do it but it works really well
The cold white cupboard looks out of place, and since it's so massive it's kind of an eyesore. I'd go for a warm white so it matches and blends in with the display shelf next to it and ties in the fridge. Possibly also paint the shelf over the radiator.
I would go for a light blue on the main part of the cupboard and do a darker blue on the trim to tie in with the dark blue from your plates on that side of the room. You look smashing in your new outfits.
Really pale grey blue, the doors are so bossy, pigeon feather color, your jumper color, compliment the soft yellow, enjoy Liked the workout clothing line Thanks And petite just ordered 2 items free shipping too win win
You can pick the blue you like, but have it lightened a couple of degrees. Same tint, different tone. I am so happy it is being done because it was looking more than a bit gnarley. Also, I hope poor Amaury’s hand heals quickly. What a horrifying accident that could have but thankfully didn’t end up being horrifyingly serious. He must be chafing at the bit to get on with his tasks. A wake up call we all often need to not take things for granted but to be more careful on a daily basis.
gerry did a great job on the pantry doors and they look so clean and fresh. Your work out outfits are beautiful. I love the White and black set. great lounge wear too. glad you are feeling well stephanie and sorry Natie is ill now.
Any good designer would purchase at least 3 paint samples to try. They are going to look different during the day and evening. Nothing worse than painting the whole thing to say you don’t like the color. Good. Luck. Can’t wait to see what color is chosen b
I love the workout clothes! Very nice! I like that they are modest in the rear instead of outlining each butt cheek like we see way to often out and about around here.
I agree: get that spider bite checked right away just to be on the safe side.
As a nurse, please have Dave have the spider bite seen and please please keep a close eye on it.
I totally agree! That spider bite needs to be seen by a doctor.
Exactly. If it was a brown recluse, it can be very dangerous

If the cupboard had some stylish handles one wouldn’t worry about hand prints on it.
My thoughts also.
Very good idea@@bettyvann5499
Stephanie, now you have to find some proper "trainers" instead of heels!
😂 👍🏻
I was going to say the same thing...lol!😂😂😂
YESSSSSSSSSS! PLEASE! 😂
That spider bite should be checked out by a doctor asap!!
DAVE GO TO THE DOCTOR.
I love how Gerald finishes the little things nobody botters to finish.
It makes all the difference.

Totally agree. Dave is magic. 🪄
Purchase either plastic or brass push plates and install on the newly painted kitchen cupboard. They will help prevent dingy finger marks on the wood.
Please no plastic!
I think Marie should pick the colour paint she is working in the kitchen all day.
I would argue it is not Marie's home, although, she has a good eye for design, so her advice could be welcomed.
She's just the cook and bottle washer
Poor Marie
Kitchen definitely needs to be painted. Something bright and clean looking.
I love Marie, but not her kitchen. She works there, I am sure she is getting paid.
Thank you do much Gerry for painting the cupboards
Maybe put a brass plate on the part of the kitchen cupboard where people open it, so the paint doesn’t come off or gets dirty.
I’d say paint it to match the walls so that it blends into the room. The focal point of the kitchen are the stove and more so the dishes.
Yes Dave as others have said please get the spider bite checked out. I got bitten by a spider on my ankle years ago, my whole foot swelled up, I couldn’t get my shoes on for weeks. I had four lots of antibiotics and antibiotic cream and anti inflammatories for 6 weeks. It took over 2 months for my foot to be properly back to normal. You’re too precious to get sick.
Stephanie you have a fantastic figure so you can wear anything and always look fabulous.
I have always longed for this magical little kitchen to be painted in its entirety a pale blue. All of the walls, cabinetry, etc the same color. It would create such a clean and complimentary back drop for the all of the Spode and will visually feel much more restful and tidy in such a busy, bustling space. The other elements in the space - range cookers, wooden table, flooring, etc will maintain enough depth and layers to balance the same color everywhere else. I can see it now in mind’s eye and it is lovely!

Pale blue is Soooo over done.
@@ThatsJustPeechy Yes I agree. Too many colors already.
@@karenmoss8810 that's what I thought too. If it was my kitchen, I would paint everything a nice warm white to let all the wood and china pop

Pale blue for the pantry.
Blue would be nice, but definitely much lighter! That large of an area in even a mid-color would overwhelm the kitchen.
I am so glad you are painting , you spend so much time in the kitchen and always wonder why don’t they paint the walls and the cabinets.
The paler of the two blues you put up will take away the "fridge" look but not be too dark.

Steph, your gym clothes looked great! You do look fabulous when you wear jeans also.
I’m glad you’re feeling better & hope Natie is better soon.
You go Percy, always keep original parts.
We have a telephone box that we left in my sons front garden when we moved to france, we actually use tractor paint which happened to be the identical colour and seriously hard waring.
Love the cabinet in the kitchen, Scott man is awesome Xxx💕
When you loo. k at what that cupboard looked like before Gerry painted, well, now it's beautiful. Way to go Gerry! I would stick with pale and if it's too bland, you could have one of your artistic friends paint a blue pattern on part of it like your dishes. Or just a floral design, with lots of different colored flowers. Maybe stencils of flowers. But I am with you, the clean, light way it looks now is soooooo much better than what it was.
Great idea of a stencil in the panels with the inspiration of the China patterns. At least Gerry got onto the job, someone had to move it on. Some nice handles would be easier to keeping it clean. The doors are made for two toned colors scheme..they have that blue in the Wedgewood room, but Stephanie is right in paler hue’s nicer. Sorry didn’t like Philips attitude of practically imposing his choice.
Little Greene paint's Bone China Blue - muted blue with a tiny hint of gray. Whatever you choose, I'm sure it will look great!
Much better light colours brightens up the kitchen a treat.
You all need to plan to purchase a van as the amount of times you have to rent one you could buy one.
Amaury is left handed, makes sense because he is so creative.
Dave, I was stung by a nasty spider several years ago. You have my sympathy. I'm not sure we know what kind it was, but my body's reaction was pretty alarming. I was living in Minnesota at the time, which has very few poisonous spiders, so I must have had an allergic reaction to that species.
Stephanie, who knew that under those dresses was such a rocking hot body? You look like you've been exercising for years. You picked wonderfully flattering outfits. I'm hoping Nattie and Marie take a turn for the cameras in their new togs, too.
Amaury, I pray you have a speedy and full recovery.
❤️ from TX
Nice glasses of fresh orange juice for everyone AND working heat! I think that you are all just recycling the same cold over and over and over!
Interesting about Amaury's scar -- here in the US they use glue more and more often. Makes for a very neat scar - but they warned me with my hip: "the glue is black, don't panic!"
match the cream like the plate cupboard or blue like the window
Happy to see it finally being painted.
I’m with Stephanie & Marie about the paint color. A paler blue would be great for such a big area to help brighten the kitchen.
And pale blue always looks clean and fresh.
Brown recluse spiders live in wood... a friend almost lost his hand after a bite. You are looking after it.
I thought they looked like a brown recluse bites but only thought those were in the U.S. A quick google search revealed they have been found in France in recent years 😬
YES !! absolutely a doctor is a must !!!!! don't wait for it to get worse. Sorry but it looks pretty bad.
Amaury the Gemini has to be busy. They cannot help it. So glad healing is happening. Sending love to you all. I miss that kitchen.🌻🇯🇲🥂
Many spider bites release toxins that stay in the body before becoming active,please have the bite’s checked and spray the area if necessary. Let us know.
God bless you Gerald! A beautiful chateau deserves bright and beautiful pantry doors. That "patena" was getting very trying. Thank you for taking the intiative.
Very good job on the pantry doors. They look very nice! Good job Gerald.❤
Surely the buttery yellow colour of the dresser to the side should be in consideration. Its a warmer colour than the blues you are looking at to make a darker corner feel cheerful.
The dresser should be next. That colour is quite dowdy!
The kitchen cabinet looks great! Keep it light, lighter and brighter. The lighter the better--- clean, simple and understated.
Exactly what Evakinney3152 said. The brown recluse bite causes creeping ulcerations of the skin and you can loose limbs. That looks really bad. The brown spider you showed is VERY close looking to the brown recluse. It can be deadly.
That cupboard has been bugging me forever!! Such a beautiful kitchen, I thought the warm paint was smudged from daily hands. Thanks Gerald for finally dealing with it. So much better! Get well Stephanie. Next trip dose up of vitamin C and zinc 🥰🤗
Good luck with the vacuum bags - I've found that they come out fusty from the lack of air. I prefer packing things away in totes with bags of silica (I make my own from bags of pure silica cat litter - so cheap, but works beautifully) - keeps the dust out and keeps everything from absorbing moisture, but still allows a bit of air. A lot of the time the vacuum sealing fails anyway, especially on the largest bags. They're a bit of a gimmick.
Thanks for sharing this great idea about making your own silica bags... i shall replicate it 😊
When my sinuses are blocked with a cold or allergies I put peppermint oil drops in a bowl of hot water and put the cloth over my head and hold my head over for a few minutes so that clears my sinuses very well so it’s interesting to see someone else do it because I don’t think I’ve ever seen anybody else do it but it works really well
The cold white cupboard looks out of place, and since it's so massive it's kind of an eyesore. I'd go for a warm white so it matches and blends in with the display shelf next to it and ties in the fridge. Possibly also paint the shelf over the radiator.
It’s the undercoat!
Hi dear Lalanders, I am happy Amaury is left handed and recovering quickly, I would like to see more of darling Molly too! Love to all,
I would go for a light blue on the main part of the cupboard and do a darker blue on the trim to tie in with the dark blue from your plates on that side of the room. You look smashing in your new outfits.
Really pale grey blue, the doors are so bossy, pigeon feather color, your jumper color, compliment the soft yellow, enjoy
Liked the workout clothing line Thanks
And petite just ordered 2 items free shipping too win win
You can pick the blue you like, but have it lightened a couple of degrees. Same tint, different tone. I am so happy it is being done because it was looking more than a bit gnarley. Also, I hope poor Amaury’s hand heals quickly. What a horrifying accident that could have but thankfully didn’t end up being horrifyingly serious. He must be chafing at the bit to get on with his tasks. A wake up call we all often need to not take things for granted but to be more careful on a daily basis.
Yeah some accents like nice handles or a border would do great on the cabinet
All the trained medical people are telling Dave to get that spider bite checked by a Doctor!!
Please do it quickly!
gerry did a great job on the pantry doors and they look so clean and fresh. Your work out outfits are beautiful. I love the White and black set. great lounge wear too. glad you are feeling well stephanie and sorry Natie is ill now.
What happen to the heating system? Is it still going to be installed?
I am sure that everyone at Lalande is awaiting this time with great anticipation!!
Any good designer would purchase at least 3 paint samples to try. They are going to look different during the day and evening. Nothing worse than painting the whole thing to say you don’t like the color. Good. Luck. Can’t wait to see what color is chosen b
👍
I am SO jealous! Stephanie the FIGURE on you!😊😊😊
I love Amaury's personality, he has a sardonic and wry wit.
Handles and/or finger plates on the door would stop the doors getting dirty.
I love the workout clothes! Very nice! I like that they are modest in the rear instead of outlining each butt cheek like we see way to often out and about around here.
