Omg I thought the same thing! I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today. ❤😂😂
Percy and your Mother should consider getting a couple of solar panels and an ecoflow to store the energy in and be accessible during the blackout hours.
And a barbecue!
Solar panels would do very well in South Africa. 🌞
And lots of candles for ambiance and warm glow. The ultra cold light of the torches was nothing short of painful! 🕯🕯🕯
We have a solar panel on our caravan, they are marvellous with LED bulbs, we have ample power for lighting and charging phones etc.
@@bethbovey7566 we certainly learn from those that have done it and learned. Thank you for the information!
Wimpy is the name of a character in the Popeye series who would always say "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" Wimpy only ate hamburgers lots and lots of hamburgers
And his famous line "I would gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today!" He floated off the ground towards the charring burger. Best part of Popeye.
I always loved that line!❤😂
I went to one in Ontario, Canada last year. Congratulations to the beautiful couple. May you have many magical years to come. ❤
Thanks for the background on Wimpy's name, Linda. I grew up with the Wimpy franchise & never thought about the meaning of its name 😅.
They are too young to remember Popeye!
I’m still laughing about the whipped cream turning into butter. And then Stephanie coming up with the idea of turning it into brandy butter was genius! She has such a positive outlook on life.
Antoine, oh my, how quickly you’ve changed. Best wishes to you and your family.
Stephanie you looked gorgeous in the jumpsuit 😍. A very Happy Birthday to Nick. But can I just say OMG Antoine is soooo tall now. 🤗🤗🤗🎉🎉
Dear Anton-he’s truly grown more than a foot since we last saw him at lalande. So happy to see the family. Good on you all powering through the cooking challenges. 🌟🧡👏😃
I love the way everyone manages to embrace negative events like power outages and somehow finds a way to not only circumvent but to celebrate the fact. From appetizers to desserts, a multi-purpose party was enjoyed. More power to you all! (pun).
Now THAT was a thrilling episode! Yay, Mummy, Percy, Michael et al! As a long-distance spectator (New Mexico), it seemed JUST RIGHT. Glad to see you both soooo happy. Happy Valentine's Day to our favorite Valentines!
Such a happy party. Sooooo pleased for you Stephanie - you have kept me going since you were in your own kitchen when Isabelle wrung her hands whilst you cooked on your own for your few guests and struggled to make ends meet. I’ve loved every minute as you have picked up every opportunity, worked your socks off and taken me through a miserable lockdown and beyond. Congratulations 💝
I worked at a Wimpys as a young woman. Such memories! Congratulations you two. Iso El all will be well. It's always a worry until the party starts then everything's fine ....Isobel you remind me of my own dear Mama. She's our treasure!❤❤❤😊
How sweet to have an engagement party on Valentine's Day! Congrats!!
Wimpy’s line in the comic strip was “I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.”
My face hurts! I had a huge huge smile for the duration of the whole video! Happy birthday, Nick and of course, many years of happiness ahead of you, darling Stephanie and Philip! What a superb group of family and friends! I am so happy for you, for being all there, together with sweet Isabelle and Percy! Antoine is turning into a very handsome young man!!! I cannot believe either how tall he is! When he was hugging mommy, I could really see how tall he is! Just the most beautiful party!!!❤❤❤
Same for me!
so much friendship, love and happiness....congrats!!!
Rolling power outages stink. The outfit looks beautiful and congratulations again on your engagement.
Honestly Mummy has me is stitches she's such a good laugh and so much younger than her years 😊 ❤.
What a wonderful episode. Xxx 🎉
Wonderful to see all the gang together 🥰
Agreed x
Jumpsuit is gorgeous, especially on you with those earrings
Philip has fabulous taste in style and color!
The earrings and the jumpsuit together are a knockout.
Antoine is such a handsome young man :) I see many broken hearts in his future lol lol
Is that a Dolce Gabbana jumpsuit?!
Your smile as you tightly hugged two of your favourite people (Mummy and Percy) wearing those fabulous blue earrings - was a delight to see
Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning. May your love story continue forever. Congratulations.
Omg Michaels mom is back on the vlog! Shes the cutest
They make oven thermometers for accurate temps. No need to replace the oven. Congrats on the upcoming nuptials.
Stephanie, I absolutely adore your jumpsuit. Gorgeous and you're glowing. Congratulations once again 🎉🎉🎉
You're the BOMB in that jumpsuit Stephanie! Looks very vintage Italian, marvelous look on you! Wimpy's was a total throwback!
What a happy party for a happy crowd. So lovely to see Percy looking so healthy. Isabelle's words at the end were just lovely.
Congratulations again, oh and Happy Birthday too! ❤❤❤
Time for solar panels and solar lights!
The entire back yard could be ablaze with solar lights.
You just need a generator. It's always good to have one on hand, for a whole host of reasons.
What a great for the new couple and Nick. Even in the dark. Happy 49th birthday to Nick.🎉❤😊
Can you please tell me who Nick is and why he is wearing a bag over his head?
Nick bought Lalande with Stephanie 18 years ago. Stephanie is the face of Lalande, so Nick, as a joke, wears a bag. Even his parents do the same. ❤ Michael Potts bought 10% of Lalande just a few years ago. So Nick and family have the 3 bedroom cottage at Lalande and Nick the bedsitting room.
@@carolinegooder7091 Thanks for the info, Caroline. One more thing, how do they all know each other from the So. Africa connection?
@@andreadern4463 I think Stephanie and Nick went to school together. But, I don't remember how she met Michael
Percy and Mom look so happy and cute!! Stephanie you look stunning!! Phillip you look great!! All the food looks delicious!! And many friends are sharing your love and good wishes for your future, that´s really a joyful event. I love you, thank you for sharing these moments with us.
Stephanie
I was surprised to see the “Thank You Patreon Gift,”
which arrive just minutes ago in my mailbox … from Yourself and your Mother.
As an artist myself and an avid collector of Art I am thankful for this generous gift to add to my collection.
Additionally, as a collector of Art the additional history of the artwork and information is most welcome.
Thank you again…
Congratulations Stephanie and Phillip!
❤Congradulations !!❤
Amen to Isabel's blessing of 50 years of happiness to Stephanie & Phillip! And Happy Birthday, Nick!
Phillip was spot on with that jump suit! Perfect for a summer engagement celebration!
Now, let's see if Stephanie can pick out some new outfits for her future husband ❤
Great party, fun with no electricity and you are all still laughing. Delightful! Congratulations! Stephanie you are so cute in that jumpsuit with the crazy cute blue earrings!
A night to remember
Suggestion Stephanie, get the brand and model number for the oven, goggle it and see if you can get a picture with all temperature info on it. then go wild with a tiny paintbrush.
Brilliant!!
This was simply a beautiful episode. So much happiness. Antoine has grown so much, he’s a young man now. ❤️ Happy birthday Nick, happy engagement celebration Stephanie and Phillip. It was a joy to watch such happiness. Thank you.
Stephanie you are absolutely radiant❤
I wish we could have another Engagement party at Lalande!! It would be wonderful to see everybody there cheering and celebrating!!💖💖💖💖
They most likely will
💯 yes, a party at the Chateau 🎉
I'm sure there will be one! Or two, or ..... 😉
It will need to be a double engagement party for Stephanie/Philip and Nati/Amaury.
YES!!!
An engagement party for Stephanie & Phillip💍, and Amaury & Nati!! 💍❣

Congrats and happy birthday to Nick!
Happy Birthday to illusive Nick and congratulations to the happy couple. You looked great in the jumpsuit Stephanie. Happy Valentines Day! 🙏❤️
Happy Birthday Nick! From the back, you look as young as your son. Congratulations again to Stephanie and Philip! How exciting this year will be for life at LaLande.
I dissolved into laughter at the creation of butter! Brilliant to add brandy. That is making lemonade out of lemons - a critical ingredient in any recipe for a happy marriage. Wishing you both a lifetime of joy.
As a South African viewer, literally 2hours drive away from you guys, these SA vlogs are a real treat 😆
Thank you for making us privy to your fiancailles.Philipes face has changed,there is a peace.So glad you are all together.
Isabelle telling the story of meeting Percy is one of my favorite things to go back and rewatch. It’s the best!
Beautiful get together, be still my ❤️ Mr.Potts 😂 .. Congrats once again on Stephanie and Phillip's engagement 😊
What a lovely combo Engagement/ birthday party. Best wishes to all of you.
Antoine, how tall and handsome you are... all the better to see the giraffes on this year's safari... lol.
If there was ever a place that needed a backup generator, it's this beach house. Can anyone say solar panels, too. Now you know what to get Percy and Isabel for their Christmas and birthday gifts.
Oh my gosh...Antoine!!! Not a kid anymore. What an adventure. Definitely one for the books. 🎉🎉🎉❤ So happy for you and Philip.❤❤
I warmly recommend "séparation des biens"!😘
A pleasure to witness so much joy! Congratulations on your engagement. And Happy Birthday to Nick.
This is wonderful. Congratulations from our hearts. Love and hugs from the Chateau de Colombe. 😊
Congratulations on your engagement, Stephanie! Wish you all the joy and happiness for you and your now lovely fiancé, Philip!! First time leaving a comment after a couple of years of daily watching your videos, I just had to! This is too exciting news not to do anything! Sending love love and love from Canada❤
Loved tonight’s vlog so good seeing all the old familiar faces gathering to celebrate Nicks birthday and Stephanie and Philips engagement. It’s crazy how much I feel like I know you all even though we’ve never met. I’m so invested in your channel I go onto CZcams every night looking for the next vlog. Thankyou for giving us all so much joy participating online with your wonderful lives ❤
There is a Wimpy still in Kings Lynn ,UK. I was shocked to see it when I first saw it about 16 years ago . Call about blast from the past . Remember going in them in the 70s a child
Yes I remember them very well as a child in England. 😊 We never thought it was a strange name.
There are actually 64 Wimpys’ still in England ! As a coincidence it was the one in Kings Lynn when I moved near there that I was very surprised to see as all the Wimpys near to where I grew up closed in the 1980’s.
@@helenneave8328 That is good to know. I now live in Australia. No Wimpys here.
There is one in Barnstaple too
That was simply so happy to witness and I am in tears x love to all Josie xxx
Stephanie you look absolutely stunning in that outfit❤
Thank you for the invite Isabelle and Percy. I turned down my lamp to feel like I was there, and had pecan pie instead of the red velvet cake.
Congrats Stephanie and Philip
😍Great seeing the whole family together!! Especially Isabelle & Percy! 💖💖
My Greek Salad - Nice bunch black grapes. Spinach/Lettuce/Black Olives/Feta /Grapes/Cukes/Greek Viniagrette Grapes used instead of tomatoes We get Moongrapes here in the US
Congratulations Phillip and Stephanie!!! Be happy!!!
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!!❤
When my husband and I got engaged we had a celebratory burger at the Wimpys on Fleet Street! Thank you for your lovely blogs and happy memories. Congratulations to two wonderful people
Congratulations on your engagement!. I wish you many, many happy years of love, life and laughter together. ❤
Oh it is so funny that SA still has Wimpy's.
And I love that you created such a close-knit family. I mean not everyone is still friends from school/college years and years later, and then the family from Percy, now Philipp. Well done.
Congrats again! It's so nice to see everyone!😄🥰
You looked gorgeous Stephanie. It is so lovely you shared your momentous celebration with us. Your mom always adds the cherry on the sundae. 🍾 🥂 🍾
Happy Birthday to Nick! The party looked wonderful. Stephanie, your jumpsuit and accessories is gorgeous! You and Philip have been twinkling for about a week and a half now! I can see your happiness on your faces. You so suit each other. Your mother's fine toast said it all. Congratulations!
Absolutely joyous!! Many many congratulations, you look so happy Stephanie and so does mummy xxxxx
Celebrating with family, the best! Congrats again
Congratulations again on your engagement! And I agree, Lupin is a fantastic show!
Hello Stephanie & Philip

Your mothers words at the end brought tears to my eyes

So happy for you both ❤ Congratulations on your engagement!!!
Love it that you are all so close and that everyone even travels to South Africa to celebrate Nick's Birthday and your engagement together. What a lovely bunch of people you have around in your life. Lots of love to you all!
Oh my gosh...so sweet. I was smiling thru this entire video. Happy times for you all.
Congratulations to you both. Loved the jump suit on you. You looked gorgeous. Great choice Phillip! Well done.
Great outfits all around. Great cussings in the bedroom. So nice to see everyone together. Lovely vlog
How special to have everyone celebrate together. Happy birthday Nick! Stephanie you looked gorgeous 🤗
I once had an oven that didn't have a thermometer that told what me what temp I was cooking at. So I went and got/bought one I could place on the metal rack to observe/see through the oven glass.the oven eventually needed to be replaced 2 years later. Just letting you know.
Congratulations on your engagement!!!! A
All Respects of course.
Daniel Keen
Stephanie, I'm just wondering, couldn't you look up the make of Mummie's oven online and maybe get a picture of the front of it that way you could just copy on the numbers for the dials? Or even download the oven manual? Just a thought :)
Congratulations on your engagement! Stephanie, you looked devine in your jumpsuit and blue earrings ~ such style! And Philip rocks that silk dressing gown! xx
This was just divine! So happy to see you all together! Anton has shot up, looking so grown up. Happy Birthday to Nick. Blooming load shedding….but it didn’t dampen the superb celebration! So lovely to see Marie, Michael and Judy and all the rest of the families. May there be many more joyous occasions to celebrate! Congrats again to the perfect pair! ❤❤❤
So lovely to see you so very very happy, & sharing that with all of us❤ Thank you Stephanie and Philip 🎉
What a fun filled celebration!! Such a memorable time for you all!!! I was smiling from ear to ear, heart and soul to witness all the joy you are all exuding!!! And that jumpsuit with those luminescent blue earrings is exquisite on you, Steph. As usual-good eye, Phillip! It's lovely to see how well Isabel and Percy are doing!!! Happy Birthday, Nick!! Congratulations, again Stephanie and Phillip and love to one and all!!! 🥰😀🤗
That was so sweet and you look stunning in the jumpsuit and earrings. So happy for you all
Congratulations on your engagement we cheered with excitement for you. All the best

A charming video, as usual. Everyone looks happy and well; many happy returns to Nick. What a joy to know that Stephanie and Philip have become affianced. What a lovely and joyous family gathering. To many, many more!
What a fun birthday/engagement party! Even without power it looked pretty special. Happy Birthday Nick! Welcome to the 49er club!
I was tearing up through the whole video. Congratulations, Happy Birthday and Good Health!
Congratulations and happy Valentine's Day, I couldn't be more thrilled for you and Philip xxx
Wonderful party. Happy Birthday Nick. Happy Engagement Stephanie and Phillip. Isabelle you ate the angel of light. Happy Valentine's to you all. Wow, Anthon, you have grown so much. You are a fine young man.
Micheal, I have the same shirt. You all prepared a lovely meal.❤
Such a heartwarming video. To have your closest family and friends to celebrate your love and Nicks birthday is just too wonderful. Even more special for me having you all in the vicinity of my neck of the woods. What a treasured memory this will be.
Stephanie is glowing and Antoine is now a strapping, handsome young man.
Congratulations Stephanie and Phillip! Your jumpsuit and earrings look stunning on you. ❤ Happy Birthday Nick!
Congratulations!!
Beautiful vlog, thank you, I laughed and cried throughout it. So happy for you both.
I got goosebumps all over!! I'm so happy for the two of you!! Happy B-day Nick!
You are glowing with happiness Stephanie. Great to see Mummy and Percy looking so well and relaxed. Antoine is growing up so fast, he'll be a tall and handsome man.
