Hi Will! Look it’s here… it’s uploaded! I am a genius! Get ready for the exciting adventures of your little sister Frankie Price (don't hold your breath...) But seriously Will thank you so much!
I decided to take you on a little tour of the hotel, and ended up bumping into a few familiar faces! Hope you enjoy it, and I don’t make you feel too homesick!
Thought I’d answer your questions via video, with Ed's help! So get ready to learn all about what the Bertrams are up to, what Rory’s really like and much more! (Honestly I think more effort went into making our title card than actually answering any questions...sorry, not sorry.)
This week has been the absolute worst...Cruella De Ville is on my case and I miss you like crazy! Luckily Ed came to my rescue, as per usual!
Thought I'd share with you the super-awesome amazing present that I got Ed for Xmas. Got no time to get anyone elses, sure it'll be fine. Christmas is aaages away.....oh wait....
So I tried to give you a nice glimpse into the Mansfield Park Christmas party...but then Tom hijacked the camera and everything kind of went awry!
Merry Christmas Eve Will. Just a quick one, sending you my Christmas greetings....which may have been hijacked by Julia.
A little slice of Christmas day at Mansfield Park! In which sherry is consumed, gifts are swapped, and Tom's present for Mrs Bertram most definitely steals the show!
Getting ready for New Years Eve, with decorations and biscuits! Last video of 2014 - Scary Thought.
Coverage of Mansfield's Annual New Year's Fireworks Shindig gets sidetracked to make way for an...exciting...announcement!
It's been an exciting week. Rory is still giddy after the engagement, and Mr Bertram is giddy over a building.
"Who are They?" you ask. Well, in today's video I shall reveal all about the mysterious Crawfords....with the help of Ed and Tom.
After much hype, they're finally here. The Crawfords have arrived at Mansfield.
I didn't think I'd get a chance to sneakily introduce you to the Crawfords...fate had other ideas. Turns out they're not that camera-shy...quelle surprise!
I know it's not nice to share videos of people who don't know they're being filmed. But do you know what else isn't nice? Having your life judged by a pair of complete strangers.
Rhea and Rory are disturbed whilst trying to invite you to their wedding. Can you guess who by?
Back outside for today's video, to try and avoid all the "business" talk inside. Then a wild Crawford appeared, and well.....you know how they say you learn something new everyday?
In where we say goodbye to Tom, before he and Mr Bertram disappear off to The Antigua.
Your fabled package finally arrived! Thank you so much! It was certainly well timed...I ate nearly all of the jelly babies in an effort to distract myself from yet more Crawford talk...
Eugh....
Know how much I love you Will, and how well I can multitask, as I knock on deaths door AND make a video for you at the same time.
You know what they say about every cloud...?
No longer dying, and things are FINALLY starting to look up.
Illness has been conquered. This means I can go back to life as normal, which involves working and generally being the last person to find out about stuff.
What starts out as a cheeky takeaway night results in Ed engaging in a bit of misguided heroism...
Our journey to Sotherton, in which our party is divided by the power of the Crawford charm.
Blue skies, sea air, and candyfloss...Mary and Henry even persuaded the staff on the pier to look after my camera so I couldn't avoid going on the dodgems...what more could you want from a beach holiday? It feels very weird to be so close to Portsmouth but not going home. Not that you're there anyway, but am thinking of you x
So much for 'no drama at the seaside'...
Well and truly back to reality, after another fun conversation where a Wild Crawford, yet again, appeared. At least I can promise there to be no surprise skinny dipping in this video...
No update video is complete without copious levels of Tea, and more importantly: BISCUITS!
Come for the video, stay for the beauteous wonder that is Ed's shirt. Also thank you to Tom, who through the power of texting helped Ed fix my camera in time for todays video.
Been keeping myself busy, whilst everyone else is off doing... things. What are these "things" that people speak of?
Actually, if I'm really honest, I suppose I knew this was coming...
Tom has returned to Mansfield, in all his drunken glory. However he is not alone.....
In where we finally meet Tom's "famous" friend, who I'm convinced is just an entity in himself, rather than a human being.
With Mr Bertram absent, I'm afraid Easter celebrations at Mansfield have been largely ignored in favour of everyone catching a bad case of 'hipster-itus'...
It's happening.... it's really happening. Yates and Tom have asked me to film some behind the scenes footage for Lovers Vows, so for your "pleasure" here are The Boys Auditions. Enjoy....
Our Julia has a reputation for being stroppy, but I must say, just this once I think she's right on the money...
Rhea takes peer pressure to a new level...
Now it's Tom's turn to take peer pressure to an ever higher level...
Hypocrisy thy name is....
The novelty factor has officially worn off...
You know what they say...every cloud has a larger, more horrible cloud hiding behind it...
It never rains, but it pours...
Well Lover's Vows is over, and now we return to this thing called Reality....
I finished cobbling together the trailer for Yates. It was too funny not to share.
In the absence of Bertrams, there is the "wise" company of a Rushworth.
Never trust another person with your coffee order. They might be a fan of soy...
The big day looms ever nearer, and Bridezilla is on the rampage.
Ding dong, the bells are gonna chime. Quite possibly the bells of doom.
Now that the "excitement" from the Wedding of the Millennium has died down, things are slowly returning to normal.
With renovations here nearly complete, Antigua talk is starting up once again.
If you ever needed proof that Mary and I have crossed the border into actual friendship...she is no longer only interrupting my work - I am interrupting hers...
Believe it, my distant, lovely Londoners....it is actually an update from yours truly. Now in video format. Just call me Mary: Queen of shots! If you're waiting for me to update my blog, you'll be waiting a long time...but I thought I'd attempt to update my hometown girls by taking leaf from Frankie's book...
The sun is shining, we have fancy drinks, and Ed is home. Things could be worse :)
Staying true to my promise to avoid work as much as possible, here is another video update from yours truly.
Is two REALLY as bad as one?
Now that they're married, does this make them one entity?
The boy is back in town...
So Henry's back in Mansfield and he's being all chatty and nice.... Which is what worries me.
Maybe Frankenstein's monster wasn't the only one who was re-built in some Gothic laboratory...
Has the true meaning of Mansfield come through?
Some people just don't know their audience...
What do you call the Puppet Master's Puppet Master?
Well I never...
I feel like I've just witnessed the loch ness monster or something...
Am I allowed to be sad about good news?
A magical mystery tour of Mansfield, brought to you by a Crawford Camera Hijacker.
You know the rest, Will.
"Documenting some 'us' time"...more like gathering embarrassing footage of me for future blackmailing purposes...
Why, when reminiscing about the past, does the conversation always turn to that pesky future?
Turns out WIll, that you make quite the "life evaluating" impression on people.
Well who would have thought it?
Please Will. Don't make me be a young person. Just don't!
What happens when the Agony Aunt needs an Agony Aunt?
Feel like the only solutions is for me to get more piercings...
Not a tale I distort, on the Birthday Report.
Ed interrupted my vlog, looks like you will be seeing more of him after all!
The one time I wish the weekend hadn't come....
And back to London we go!
What am I supposed to do with this?
And that - as they say - is that.
Turns out no one is ever too old for a stern telling off.... -_-
There's no place like home...
Bring out your tiny violins...
....Pompey play up!
What can I say, I'm a city girl at heart!
......
You win, brother.
What a co-ink-i-dink...
Even the nice ones let you down!
This is madness
Patience is wearing a little thin...
An update on Tom's condition
And the rain, rain, rain came down, down, down.
Catching up with Julia raises more questions than it answers...
These videos never quite go to plan, do they...?
This has all gone on for long enough.
Well... What is there to say next?
X-Men Re-United?
One person I never thought I'd be giving advice to...
It's the return of the man, the myth, the self confesed legend.
Not a regular guest to my attic, but a welcome one :)
Nearly didn't share all of this, but it made me feel seriously gooey inside...
More nonsensical ramblings from my brain.
Not everything can go back to normal...
In which I try to explain myself..... a lot.
Because I enjoy being a tourist almost as much as I enjoy tourist montages.
Don't you dare say 'I told you so'.
And now the end is near...
...And so I face the final curtain
Deciding to look forward to a happy future, and have done with all the rest.
