Wow- that looked truly tragic.
One room of the manor, had a black curtain stuck to the wall.
A cheap DJ floor and DJ.

If that’s VIP!

Castle quiet on the story front

spanfan · 20/11/2021 13:18

That party looked awful. No pics from yawn at the party. Nothing worth posting about. The fake joy must be exhausting

Spongebobette · 20/11/2021 13:59

SUCH a lot of effort by bots trying to look as if it was the best part ever

When are Forever Living’s accounts due? I’m interested to see if the decline continues
I suppose they’ll see a bit of a bump in 2020 as the top bots hoovered up desperate people on furlough or who had lost their jobs… but that’s not sustainable

OP posts:
Spongebobette · 20/11/2021 15:08

Just had a glance at their accounts from June

One interesting thing is that ‘the manor’ isn’t actually owned by Forever Living (even though the bots often claim it is) but by a company owned by the son of the man who started FL (who recently died), and FL pays about 100k a year to this other company to rent it

So that’s nice. If it all goes tits up for FL, the family still have that asset.

My God the FL party looks dreadful. There’s only about 30 people there!

I know it's tragic....you can tell there's hardly anyone there..

Did they even get dinner?

After all Yawns look at me photos I can’t find any of her at party. There is a couple of Mr Yawn though. It did look a dismal affair. So apart from the Yawns, Uber’s and BFF was any of the usual suspects there.
Yawn driving to McDonalds so Mr Yawn & DD can partake.
Her new protégée not getting much interest.

@Spongebobette

Hmmm why weren’t they treated like VIPs? No afternoon tea and gifts from the generous company? And why didn’t they just pay for a hotel room anyway so they could at least make it look like they are in the elite? A missed opportunity for attraction marketing
Hmm BFFs pic show the afternoon tea and details of the free accommodation.

Does that mean Yawn wasn't invited to the whole do (like the B List wedding evening guest) or she decided not to do the hotel thing?

If the latter then why not? Surely perfect instragrammabke boasting opportunity. OK not that far for her but what couple doesn't jump at a hotel night?

She actually seems either terribly boring or hard up. Holidays are 3 day package events. Dinner with her DH is Wagamama with a coke each once in a blue moon. Only pitching up for the worlds most crap party and not the before and hotel after and doesn't appear in any dancing videos so looks like she was home early doors.

JohnStonesMissus · 21/11/2021 11:42

Does anyone know if Castle went?

fromdownwest · 21/11/2021 12:30

Castle went - but very unlike her there were no Insta updates.

The whole thing was laughable. Surley, the top bots must have been stood in that room, looking a the cheap DJ floor, black curtain on the wall, and handful of wannabe VIP's and thought...'what am I doing'

Such a fall from the hedonistic ependiture of past times.

An afternoon in a run down tent, with a gifted teapot and handful of FL products, onto an event looking like it was orgainsed by a 6th form comittee.

How long left in the FL machine?

JohnStonesMissus · 21/11/2021 13:15

VIP wannabees, love it! I don't think any of the top bots where dancing were they? Just the wannabees pretending they've made it...cringe

PieonaBarm · 21/11/2021 13:29

If Yawn was half as affluent as she makes out she wouldn't have been painting the outside of the thatch and the window frames herself, she'd have paid someone to do it

It reeked of desperation FL must have set it up and thought that it would look great on social media and that the bots would take loads of carefully posed photos to share

Poor FLP “successes”, my son spent a weekend at Reading Festival under canvas in similar squalid conditions so they have my sympathies, especially as it was in November. Mind you his ticket cost him less and he seems to have had more fun.

Anyone who turned up to that must realise or have to face the fact that the trajectory for FLP is distinctly downward.

fromdownwest · 21/11/2021 15:02

Telling that the top bots didn’t post it all over social media.

Even they must have seen it for what it was, a third rate attempt to wow lower bots.

If this is FL spoiling the top bots, it does not bode well. Purse strings being tightened severely

JohnStonesMissus · 21/11/2021 17:18

I bet the wannabee VIP bots put it all over social media though!

MarchXX · 21/11/2021 19:03

I'm really liking Nurse's new hairdo, suits her very well.

Yawns party frock, oh dear Hmm. I have boobs like that and have to be very careful wearing crossover designs.

Smorgasborb · 21/11/2021 20:15

One of the manager bots has done a video of the afternoon tea. It looks miserable. Cup of tea and a couple of Sarnies and a scone. Not even a glass of bubbles to take away the horror.
There are a lot of half empty tables and people looking bored. She is actually very lovely and is having the time of her life and she's beside herself at being given a lanyard and that there's is a swing to have a photo taken on. She has somehow managed to invite 8 of her family members so even that tiny crowd is massively boosted by randoms.

BSintolerant · 22/11/2021 07:15

A party with a swing? Isn’t that exciting. Forever Fibbing obviously put a lot of thought into organising this thrilling event. Where can I sign up so I can go to parties like this, hun?

The entire purpose of the video seems to be to recruit. Lots Of 'sign up with me if you want to come to the next one!', 'this is a proper party!! It would be great if you were here too wouldn't it?'
WellThatsATurnipForTheBooks · 22/11/2021 08:53

Yawn's BFF has put up a clip of her walking down the red carpet to the event ....jeez it's so shit it's making me cringe so bad.

It looks like a few people standing around in a car park not sure what to do with themselves

Spongebobette · 22/11/2021 09:21

Oh cringe

And another bot doing a video in the background 🤣

OP posts:
Spongebobette · 22/11/2021 09:24

But she helpfully share LS a photo of the ‘wall of fame’ so we can see who was invited

Not divided up into Managers and Super Soaring bots etc though, wonder why
