Yes, in the Metropolitan Police which coincidentally is the force that would be involved if he flew from Heathrow.

I wouldn’t put it past him to not actually spike her drink but pretend he has for a laugh

however Castle’s post says she slept for the whole journey

Horrible horrible Headband and her horrible yellow bags of shite that she's making a ton of money and case credits off. At full retail price, the toothpaste, deoderant and lip balm cost £18.90, which I presume she's getting at wholesale at around £13. So stupid branded bag and freebie samples aside, she's profiting £9 per bag and getting the case credits as well.

In other stories, I wonder if we are seeing the beginning of the end of Buildabear?

The lack of posts is telling, Yawn's pushing her fitness classes while Techie is just doing the other stuff. I wonder if the penny has dropped for techie?

This is labelled "sensitive content" by mumsent Hmm Grin.

@MrsDilligaf yes, I think so. BaB has never come back from the summer break. Yawn did work in a reference to doing some coaching the other day but almost as if she thought it needed to be mentioned. Yawn has distracted herself with the PT thing but she must be scratching around earning very little. It will be interesting to see if the websites attached to coaching or to Techie quietly disappear over the next few months.

@dickiedavisthunderthighs headband gets 48% discount on all products. I've had another bot come after me today. Telling me it's all my fault because I didn't work hard enough and how dare I blame headband for that, blah blah. She was trying to draw me into a row. My reply: "oh dear, so not interested in the actual truth then? Just another poor deluded soul who is totally incapable of applying critical thinking, even when presented with cold hard facts". Anyone would think that they are trying to shut me up 😂😂

YouOKHun · 12/10/2026 17:28

Interesting about the Castles’ separation. Mrs Castle Senior liking Mr Castle Junior’s recent content and I wonder if they’re fond of him. Mr Castle Junior has had a ringside seat watching the seniors grafting, working with Mr Castle Senior and probably co-ordinating child care with them. I bet he spends a lot of time doing parenting things on his own deemed to boring and in-insta worth by Castle. Perhaps it’s easier for him to just do it on his own full stop.

Even if the Seniors do like him I expect someone will be making sure there isn’t too much in her name just in case she has to give him half of it.

Spongebobette · 12/10/2026 17:35

I think the senior Castle respects hard graft and his son in law is working hard establishing himself in a trade.

unfortunately he might see his feckless daughter and son through rose tinted glasses or not choose to see what absolute grifters they both are

She’s got them rallying round and ganging up - it’s pathetic really

So this seems to be Techies new business page as you can see by the job titles referenced it’s using the ‘builder’ crew. Prices start from 4.99 - £19.99 per month although in a video Yawn has just done extolling what a tech idiot she is and how easy this digi-links has made it to do her website then Yawn says it’s £24.99.
Yawn says techie is still her business partner in the video but interestingly says that although she could have techie to do this website then she didn’t as yawn wanted to give it a try herself.
Absolutely no mention of ‘builder’ business side of things - just the PT (yawns new website is apparently first/last name.co.uk side of things and this new techie business

Mrs Stickman is doing her best to boost Yawn. Presumably for free training

The Elder Castles have the added complication of living in the garden. Hopefully Castle has enough cash to buy Mr Castle out should they choose to divorce or again the Elder's will have to dig deep in their pockets again to at least retain somewhere to live. It's always very sad when a marriage ends especially for children but if things weren't good I'm glad one or both of them had the balls to call a separation. Prepare now for the the sickening single mummy posts doing it all on her own while still achieving 6 figures.

Looks like Mr C is renting somewhere

not cheap, having to pay for 2 households

perhaps he's moved into the 'homes under the hammer' house. The last video I watched on that of his he has giving it a freshen up as the last tennants had moved out. I wonder if Mr Yawn will find his balls and gather up his stepladder?

Crwysmam · 12/10/2026 18:49

I think Mr Castle, having joined the real world, has seen the light. Also he is earning proper money for proper work and may no longer feel comfortable propping up a pseudo business. I think that Castles major blunder last year, where she lost some serious money, broke the camels back. It may also be an indication that Castle is not out of the woods regarding her business relationships with those who may be under investigation.
I think Mr Castle has manoeuvred himself quite cleverly out of the mess. Maybe the house they bought to do up was for him rather than to rent out and the writing was on the wall some time ago.

That’s another classic tactic used by narcissists like Headband: send in the flying monkeys! I suppose it’s apt for a so called business which has a “monkey-see-monkey-do” approach to training. Speaking of which, does anyone know how Lanzabot is these days?

Justdancevance · 12/10/2026 19:43

It’s looks like Mr Castle is living in the rental but it has a mortgage on it. So any equity is in their house

The property co loans of 220k, (cash 91k and a property worth 135k - which is where he is living I’d say)

The FL business had zero cash and the scamversity business had cash of 30k but owed 5k income tax - it’s not generating a lot of income despite the outlandish claims

the the corporate marketing seems dead in the water, who’d hire her

it’s all smoke and mirrors, I’d say she’s cleaning out her parents retirement nest egg at a fair pace, as she doesn’t have the money herself

Mr Castle seems content with his lot, without her he can probably make friends but more importantly keep them.

Justdancevance · 12/10/2026 19:46

I think castle is in thrall to her new bestie//business partner. She has probably convinced herself that Mr castle has been holding her back and she will become a queen like the lady hosting the retreat.

I hope the senior castles keep a firm grip on whatever money they have left

definitelynotabot · 12/10/2026 19:47

The Castle accounts are due end of this month, aren't they?

HotAsSatansBalls · 12/10/2026 19:50

I hope Mr Castle keeps Bruv away from the hob in his new kitchen.

Justdancevance · 12/10/2026 19:51

Yes but she’s shortened that accounting date for another 3 months grace with scamversity

The other one is her old FL account and has
nothing much in it - zero cash
