Just thought I’d start this thread. If someone else has done so simultaneously let me know!

I’ve been lurking in these threads a while now and still can’t figure out the actual names of the people you’re on about 🤣 I’ve tried but brain won’t engage!

Just had a look on Instagram but there’s so many hunzzz out there it’s impossible! They’re all the same dodgy bastards though so one is the same as the other!

I got into these threads a few months ago and really enjoy working out who’s who.
Hints:
Castle. 1st name, name of a classic Jane Austin novel. 2nd name, late comedian/magician who wore a fez. Also a type of mini. Has’online’ added to her Instagram name. Her brother is ‘bruv’ or Dean of crayons 😀
Yawn. 1st name, high street shop, frequented by pre-teens, sells hair accessories, etc. 2nd name, surname of fictional tv character whose catch phrase was ‘ooh Betty’. Instagram name has ‘success’ in title 🙄

lostinlego · 17/05/2023 07:56

I think Castle is going to launch some sort of nm qualification linked to her scamversity site.

Sugarplum48 · 17/05/2023 09:53

Just doing my usual weekly trawl of all the bots and stumbled across yawns ex bff montage of the 45 years celebrating flp at the manor. In the words of Moira Rose "where are all the patrons"??? jeez it was low on the ground was it not and is it me but does Yawn stick out like a massive blonde boufont of Dolly Partron hair amoungst her counterparts!!! She looks ridiculous most of the time in her awful rara skirt dress thing and the extra extra tight knee high boots whilst the rest of them are strolling around in casual wear. This constant need to stand out and make some sort of impact is dreadfully draining I imagine. Imagine never being able to switch off. Ive been cherry picked by a bot asking if I want to connect with her and her amazing new opportunity!!!! I dont want a shitty planner thanks love!!!

NormalForNuneaton · 17/05/2023 17:21

I see that Castle is teaching her son the most important part of setting up his business .... go shopping for non-essential supplies like a new pencil case, a football and stuff to make a goal board

Castle's answer to everything is....spend money!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 17/05/2023 17:55

Yeah, Castle's teaching him him to follow exactly in her footsteps.
Express what he wants, she'll buy it, just like she does with her parents.
The magic (someone else's) money tree school of manifesting.

PieonaBarm · 17/05/2023 18:32

Yawn holding her obviously empty C9 boxes with a FL Yellow bag balanced on top in front of the Rangey. If that's one of the amazingly awesome inspiring ideas the new country manager has then the UK will out of the top ten in no time.

Spongebobette · 17/05/2023 18:33

It’s incredible isn’t it
she thinks she’s teaching him good habits

SoosanCarter · 17/05/2023 18:45

I cannot believe how vain is Yawn, I’m a big believer in self esteem, but that’s miles away from sheer vanity.

Howsimplywonderful · 17/05/2023 22:32

Castles husband seems to write shopping lists too for motor mikes and Motor homes 🤣

Twentytwentyhindsight · 17/05/2023 22:40

Castle's started writing a book today.
Apparently that qualifies her to give expert guidance on writing books.
One of her pearls of wisdom is "Be disciplined. When you plan it then see it through".
I don't think there is a living being with less self-awareness...

Sugarplum48 · 18/05/2023 08:25

Eeekkkkk omg guys if you're not involved with flp then run quickly to your nearest bot or you will miss the opportunity of your life....This is all according to yawn in her lip smacking ramble whilst being driven around by her sap of a husband. No thanks yawnicles, I'd rather lick rust than get involved in your horror show

Angrymum22 · 18/05/2023 10:54

Yawn has been doing the C9 stuff for years. What was different about 2022? For anyone who is doing their due diligence before joining Yawn, FLP has played no part in her weight loss, she has either had a gastric sleeve done or has been using one of the medically recognised weight loss injections. Since it was her GP who warned her about her serious health risks, her starting BMI would have qualified her for NHS funded weight loss.

Sugarplum48 · 18/05/2023 11:37

It seems its fairly common knowledge that yawn has had medical intervention. In all the years a few of us have known her petsonally she has had no ability to stick to a diet. Also she can't keep her trap shut and admitted to having something done.

Spongebobette · 18/05/2023 11:45

nurse
All comments about her new job are about what they have done for her and how great it is for her and how convenient for her and how she’s got a day off coming up

nothing at all about how pleased she is to be off sick leave and looking forward to making a contribution to the college/ helping young people

Spongebobette · 18/05/2023 11:48

Oh and she is STILL feeding aloe gel to her child and claiming he has a strong immune system because of it 🙄

And she's somehow surprised that she's more organised when she has a job to focus on and fill her time. For a mental health nurse she's amazingly out of touch with the basics of good mental health...

Spongebobette · 18/05/2023 17:36

Very noticeable that all the bots in that VIP meeting have gone home and started a big recruitment drive

Howsimplywonderful · 18/05/2023 18:17

The camera work in castle’s latest video is terrible - it looks like it was filmed by Mr Magoo.

It’s like she’s shouting at the camera with the rapid close ups. Very odd, poor Bruv is no Spielberg

i looked at a video of Fierce is who is saying money doesn’t make you happy and castle who shows just buying stuff doesn’t make you happy either.

I can’t believe people are paying money for this shit.

Yes agree! It’s pretty easy to tell that they’ve all had a shot up the arse. Yawn’s live from her car was full of lies (ethical company, pure direct selling etc) but also tinged with something like well concealed panic. The new country manager has seen the massive decline in recent years and the pressure to recruit new customers is on. Looking forward to seeing FLP UK’s accounts sometime this month. Then we will see the reason for the recruitment drive.

Angrymum22 · 18/05/2023 20:24

Where are they going to recruit from? They have been dredging the depths for the last couple of years. I’m not sure what Zorba the Greek is going to add to the party. FL has been done to death in the West Midlands so they have no chance of finding new victims.
People are struggling to buy basics, no one has a spare £200 to waste on Aloe gloop. Those same people would struggle to sell expensive products or to recruit. Make up and melts have saturated that demographic.

Spongebobette · 18/05/2023 20:33

Looking at the most recent recruits, I actually suspect that Yawn and her ilk are paying for the 200 quid ‘business in a box’ of ‘starter kit’ or ‘let’s play pretend business pack’ or whatever it’s called, so they can get them signed up

SnoogyWoo · 18/05/2023 20:38

Yes they start getting desperate and purchase the £200 box for new recruits. It happened to me a few years ago, a bot I know was quite high up with a large down line and paid for a £200 box to be sent to my house and for me to sign up. They said they didn’t care if I actually started or not just that they could have a new recruit. I didn’t do anything and a few months later it all fell apart for that bot and now she works part time and is a shadow of her former self.

YouOKHun · 18/05/2023 20:57

@Angrymum22 Yawn plans to invade Bristol according to a post today. Time to message every Bristol based parenting group, weight loss group, Bristol based social media groups, health related business and all one’s own contacts in Bristol to tell them to monitor the borders for Yawn’s presence. Also blockade the south bound carriageway of the M5.

We are lucky in that we're not struggling particularly however I'm much more conscious of the price rises and trying to be more savvy about what, how and where we shop. I could afford to drink aloe gloop every day and buy their collagen, but in the current climate there's not a chance I'd even contemplate it. (Not that I would anyway!)

I bought collagen from a health store online retailer for £14 for 3 months worth just to try, and it's worked wonders on my long Covid dry skin problems. Much cheaper than £240 for 3 months!

Howsimplywonderful · 18/05/2023 21:36

What’s your collagen recommendation ?
