  • In this week's episode, Patrick and Stuart welcome family friend Frauke back to the chateau along with her friend Gesche. They help out with removing more of the 20th century wallpaper in the chateau, as well as helping Patrick and Stuart with two of the chandeliers. Patrick also works on some repairs to a clock that they acquired from a recent auction that will become a gift for a friend.
    Join Patrick and Stuart on their journey to find a neglected, forgotten, or crumbling château or castle in France, and then continue to follow them as they work on its restoration, rénovation, decoration, and furnishing. Along the way, they will also create and share videos on their preparation for having gîtes for guests, and an event venue in their chateau (wedding, birthday, anniversary, organization or club meetings, retreats, etc.).

I pray I will be well enough to enjoy their visit by then. Unfortunately my hubby Pat has to work. I am so looking forward to seeing them.They are the first of my family to visit in 23 years that I have been here. I last saw them in person in 2016, so this is very exciting for me.

    Oh my, the chandelier is beyond gorgeous!!! You are collecting so many magnificent pieces including the beautiful clocks. I love the sound of clocks when they chime. I always seem to tell you about childhood memories, but so much of what you do or have triggers my memories. When my parents were in their upper eighties they moved in with my sister. My parents had many antique clocks, French, English, German, Swiss, etc in our childhood home. They all chimed, gonged, cuckooed, etc. so when they moved into my sisters house along came many of the clocks. My sister never liked the sounds they made, so she would go around switching them off, stopping the pendulums, etc. My father would turn them back on. This silent battle between them lasted until my parents passed away in their 90’s a few years ago. My sister still has the clocks and of course they are turned off. One night not that long ago they all chimed at midnight. She called me freaked out. I told her she was always looking for a sign from mom and dad and the chimes were our parents letting her know they are ok and with us. I can’t think of any other explanation. Thank you for collecting such beautiful clocks. xx

      Oh Stephanie….. firstly, it is an honor to trigger such amazing memories. The chandelier is very unusual and we are collecting amazing pieces at bargain prices. 😮😮😮😮. It is true.
      Now to the big story……. That was amazing. I have no idea why anyone could dislike chimes…. But indeed, I think it was your parents telling her they are OK and to loosen up and enjoy old colicky and their language. Love from Colombe ❤😊❤

It will be fun assembling the crystals pieces and the stag chandelier is just too gorgeous for words. I am sure the clock will be restored perfectly, just a bit of patience. Love the climbing rose on the wall it looks like there are two climbers planted together, the pink and white is just lovely. I can see Frauke is a no nonsense person, what has to get done she is right into it. Our friends are amazing. It was a most pleasant video looking forward to Friday's. Kind regards.

I am also very attentive to your garden, which is my passion and which has been my sector of activity for many years. Ah...! and of course, I can't forget your adorable little four-legged friends; Aren’t these little wonders cute? What a joy to see all these little people evolving in this peaceful setting.

    I had a clock like that, but the works were missing and the pendulum. We ended up donating it to an elderly man who worked on clocks as a hobby. I’m sure he brought it back. We have an extensive clock collection and we just hadn’t the room for it, sadly. It went to a good caretaker. Nonetheless, I do have a little case of the green eyed monster. Love them.

    I know this is going to sound perhaps a little strange given the fact that I do realize the walls are old and the covering is old and changed dramatically over time. That said, I love that color! It comes across as a kind of faded rose/peach. Just love it.

    The chandeliers are lovely and unusual. The clocks are equally beautiful and I am impressed with Patrick knowledge of clock repair. The images of your roses are spectacular and I miss the fragrance, as many nurseries with roses in the US are void of a fragrance. Take care my friends, Ralph Rocchiccioli

    I LOVE both chandeliers but the second one had something that appealed to me when usually I don’t. My favorite part were the surrounds for the light 💡. It had an old chainmail look to it that just goes with a chateau’s historical perspective. Lovely and masculine at the same time. ❤

I’m so happy to see your lovely friends back and mucking in with all the work that you have in front of you, good friends are such a gift to have. The clocks are beautiful and it’s nice that you have similar taste. Stuart you are definitely one of the best if not the best in my opinion (I don’t know what you call it ) editor video maker sound and music director etc, it’s such a pleasure to watch both of you.
