Meanwhile Caroline Aherne is turning in her grave.
Ugh that article is so depressing. Is it meant to be funny? Nowhere anywhere mentioning wanting to give an animal a good and loving home, but all about what the poor creature can do for her. World revolving around Caitlin Moran as per usual.I remember when she tied herself up in knots justifying why she couldn’t get a rescue dog and had to buy from a breeder.
Shhhh.... nobody mention Bread or Only Fools and Horses eitherBlimey. That showed Galton and Simpson!
Christ she is such a terrible writer. Can't stand her writing styleI remember when she tied herself up in knots justifying why she couldn’t get a rescue dog and had to buy from a breeder.
This article is horrible. Ugh, just when I thought she couldn’t go down in my estimations any furtherI remember when she tied herself up in knots justifying why she couldn’t get a rescue dog and had to buy from a breeder.
Or Johnny Speight sitcoms. 'They tore down our house to build a slum'. Take that, Moran!Shhhh.... nobody mention Bread or Only Fools and Horses either
It's Taylor Parkes. I think now writes for the Quietus and sometimes on sport.I also wonder if her boyfriend ’Taylor‘ in the article is actually Pete ‘Takis’ Paphides? “Taylor is a pop-music writer, but not doing quite as well as Caitlin....”
Ah, thanks! Have to admit I’ve never heard of him. I guess she had a type.It's Taylor Parkes. I think now writes for the Quietus and sometimes on sport.
Was Taylor one of the crappy men she wrote about in her novel or memoir, ?(hard to remember which is which)If you want to give yourself a delicious case of the squits, read this 1994 piece by Hunter Davies in the Indy, on the ‘precocious talent’ that was Moran at 19:

I grew up in a family that were dirt-poor working class on both sides for as far back as anyone can remember, and the idea of having uncashed cheques lying about - let alone being so cavalier about money that you could lose not one, but three ‘big’ cheques in the bohemian squalor of your own home - is such bullshit. If she grew up legit poor I’m a man with three buttocks.

And I believe that Lauren Laverne dated him at a later date.Ah, thanks! Have to admit I’ve never heard of him. I guess she had a type.
Yep...and it sounds as if the novel and tv script mentioned in the piece are what ended up being rehashed and published twenty years on.Does she not realise repeating the same stories after a while draws attention to their artifice, and she has been chipping away at her own creation for years now by becoming a satire of herself , or a barbie with three sentences....

I really hate when other people and I hate that it is usually women attack people for wanting to put effort into their health and stay slim!? Like if you are happy with your body then fantastic but I am aware that the little bit of weight I carry on my stomach is putting me a risk for health problems and I would like to solve that.Oh Caitlin
