So she's given up on the shed cooking? Most of this is either blindingly obvious or said item comes with instructions as to how to do it. Like the internet has been around for quite a while and has it all covered.

Is Jack ever going to actually produce any videos from her shed? Or did she just see Jamie Oliver do his show from his spare room and think if she created a similar space, the commissions would come rolling in?
Think she’s realised it’s a non starter from a safety (fire hazard) & hygiene (no running water for washing hands) point of view so is now canvassing for ideas on Twitter re ‘life-skills’ for teens eg kitchen budgeting etc. Wants to be the next Joe Wicks for hapless school-kids. Bit like what ‘That Man’is doing with his ‘In the Kitchen with Jack’ thing. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

I can actually see this being picked up by Netflix. They will be short of content after the shutdown, and she could well be the next ….. Joe Exotic.

Remember, you heard it here first.

I'd like to add a few:
-Telling the truth
-Delivering on promises
-Owning your shit

Oh, and printer skills: collation, changing cartridges etc

PS He's only 10 - why is she lining him up to be the new Ray Mears?

Her tweet about SB is all for Tattle's benefit, so we know her son hasn't been abandoned whilst she manically devotes herself to her latest project.

Oh SB is her son, probably a silly question but what's the acronym?

I thought she was doing more public service for the nation but no she's addressing people hete that commented on her replacing mothet with TV presenter in her bio.

I think it stand for ‘Small Boy’
which is a bit archaic and depersonalising in my opinion, but whatevs

I suppose she has to do something with her time now that Daily Kitchen doesn't look like it's coming back and the interest in her shed of tweeness is minimal.

Is anyone here a Bill Bailey fan? Or has seen the sketch he does with the major/minor key? It struck me today that whenever I read any of her interviews/articles/words of woe it reminds me of that sketch (clue, she's not the major key)


I'm off to have a look at these houseplant sites, really want a string of hearts plant for my bathroom

I’ve been so much braver with my cooking thanks to you ladies! I’ve bulk cooked a load of apple sauce for the pork chops we got and husband absolutely loves it (I don’t eat pork but I have had a few spoonfuls of it omg I could eat tubs of it is that bad?). Made my own Delia pasta sauce with tomatoes on the turn which tasted like this lovely Italian I used to get as a treat on Fridays! Toooons of Jamie bits too! And had loads of fun tbh I don’t get the chance to do nice stuff like this often so it’s been a real treat?

Planted the first lot of my wildflower seeds today too, bought them off eBay not your seed connect so hoping I’ve not been had! I’ll post pics when they bloom

Also would genuinely love to be taught to put up a shelf Does anyone here have tips on drilling into fresh plaster? We’re in a proper brick house the whole idea fills me with utter dread, I don’t wanna fuck the house up!

Why are you hating on me, hun? Is it because you are jealous?
I can't help the ideas that come spilling from my weird little brain.
In fact, I'm going to lawyer up and sue you for hate speech against my self-diagnosed neurodivergence.

Could you not just ask fearless Eddie to take a shot at it?






P.S. Was going to use this gif, but concerned that it was less printer-friendly.

I bet Jack loved being called hun. I can just imagine her sitting there gnashing her teeth as she read it

It's like she's just remembered she has a child and that he can't go to school atm

Here we go again. So poor, lived alone for 14 years. So what about all these relationships over the years?
But you did have people to do it for you Jack. You had family and friends and if you'd have asked them I'm sure they would have come to help.
But that doesn't fit with the eternal victim role you so love to play, so you didn't.
So shut the fuck up!
