Another annoying round of stories from the Cracklin going on about how many clothes she has and how she’s stopped buying over lockdown (really dear so the vile coat came into that equation did it?)

then - this is a valid point but I just can see where she’s going with this and it makes me irritated - she’s trying on a pair of Levi’s jeans she has which actually look nice on her, but then she goes into a rant about sizes for bigger women (I get that pain I don’t like jean shopping either), she doesn’t seem to realise or take on board that it’s not only Levi’s who do curvy jeans styles and then she tells her Viewers that because Jack used to work for Levi’s they’re going to speak about this “sizing issue” and put it to them re in between sizes - so basically embarrass Levi’s and try to get some free Levi’s out of them rather than paying for them!

having said that I think she’s having to rethink her style choices because in another story yesterday she showed some nice blue suede boots that will get ruined dog walking.

I was thinking about Cracker’s spiel re choice of dog to Jack:-

a) ok it’s gotta be cute and gramable, preferably cuddly and friendly because even though June dislikes dogs we’re getting it anyway.

b) no sheddable hairs from the pooch - how about a cute Cockapoo!

c) and one final thing - you’re looking after it Jack! 😂🤣

Shane - yes Boasty McBoastface!

Actually I recall her DH telling me before they got married and had June (unplanned) that when Charlotte was younger I think she’d had a hole in the heart or something - anyway lots of time in hospital and a few operations. Maybe that explains the smugness etc. Don’t get me wrong a few women of a similar age and younger sadly tend to parade this sort of life around - all very woke, designer, perfect etc. My life as older is boring but just your normal mom etc!

interesting how Charlotte doesn’t afaik talk too much about her parents’ shop yet follows them on insta.

As far as I’m aware from what Jack (DH) told me Charlotte got into lecturing and it’s in her interviews at when they lived in Margate and I think only gave it up and concentrated more on blogging (and blogging about lecturing etc I think) when June was born or before.

like I said my brother’s a good friend of Jack and Jack’s lovely and I know him well don’t quote me on this but as far as I recall Jack told us his family, dad etc not well off so maybe that’s why he’s with Charlotte etc.

Shane can’t recall how Charlotte got into lecturing but it’s to do with social Media studies etc, blogging etc which she’s very open about in interviews.

Forgot I hadn’t bitched about Charl much lately - in her stories today you have to laugh she complains about the puppy farting silently and waking her up earlier than June 😂😂

but she doesn’t half bang on about how woke she is, either in relation to black history month, a fellow influencer who sadly died of cancer or feminism - not saying Cracklin isn’t any of those things but she does lack substance and has form for only posting about them because it makes her look more woke but doesn’t really care about them.

having said that, she’s posted either Aldi or Lidl florentines which I can take or leave but their stollen bites mmmm 😋 I love those

Cracklin has verbal diarrhoea. Another weekend where she’s seemingly on the gram
spotting household stuff she wants or wants to get gifted to her - remember to state this Charlotte!

then and this is twice now - she’s got hold of a vintage or new vintage Players cigarettes card saying “Don’t be a Cock” 🐔(well yes I will be actually 😆) she’s posted it not once but twice just to state that yes she can swear 😂oh that’s so hilair (hilarious) wonder if June can read yet?!

also if you’re doing a story or post about your love of vests why can’t you do some work and link to new ones (you’ll get gifted them so not all in vain) rather than droning on about grey vests - when I heard about that I was like “poor Jack, lives in a pastel marshmallow hell and then he can’t even see his wife in pretty vests but they have to be grim grey ones”. I think Cracklin needs a tome gifted to her entitled “How To Be A Better Wife” 🤣😂

@Chandler Bing - hate to break it to you and you might know but I think she reads here! 😂🤣😅 she quoted your user name as reference to her fair isle tank knit and slogan tee combo, hey she could’ve been referring to Chandler Bing from Friends.

anyway if you’re reading “hi Cracklin!” ✋🤚to Cracklin and remember eavesdroppers rarely hear anything good about themselves 😉

Oh wow haha well I've never heard of this person and as such have never even visited this thread until you tagged me so I would go with the assumption that it was a Friends reference!

I’ve decided as of now that I’m not going to criticise Cracklin even though she annoys the hell out of me - so well done to whoever it was who lambasted me. I’ve got loads of work on though and need to spend more time with kids. Bah! *waves to Cracklin!*

All she does is eat - go out for food, buy cakes and talk about the food she’s eaten/bought.
I’m not body shaming, honest, but maybe there’s a reason those hideous dresses are so tent-like . . . 🤷🏼‍♀️

Stories. It’s all reported as positive progress, pivoting, prioritising .... I was just idly wondering if there’s more behind the change in direction. Might not be.

I think that you're right. Maybe she's afraid of speaking out for some reason, maybe doesn't want to raise awareness of her former association with Sarah Akwisombe and wants to step away with her reputation intact(ish), although I'd say that the better option would be to properly distance herself.

Sometimes I think she looks so ridiculous in her granny gear and frou-frou dresses. But then sometimes I do envy the fact that she has a really strong sense of personal style, and she dresses in what she likes and what makes her feel good, regardless of how it might look to others (which is daft).

She does look ridiculous in her granny gear and frou frou dresses but hey every grammer needs an identifiable style. I just feel her style is more for the gram and less for real life though she does wear this in real life. It’s just not very practical - at least for everyday mum, dog walking etc duties. I wish she’d mix it up with her old style which was actually very nice and had darker colours. This just seems lazy to me.

She certainly has a very characteristic taste. I think she goes way over the top sometimes but she does always look very comfortable.

That’s the thing I think most of it is to get more free dresses, patchwork coats etc… she’s lucky she’s taller so pulls off this style better than others would (and camera always adds pounds). It’d be interesting to see how much she curates her wardrobe of her granny gear and gives to charity etc!

How embarrassing for her to be doing a kitchen makeover feature alongside Medina (grillodesigns), who I think is absolutely fantastic at creating inspirational interiors content for renters (and has great personal style and taste). Poor Charlotte's kitchen update is never going to compare.
