I knew he was tory and by chance his wife must be but theres a difference between being tory and retweeting Lawrence fox that man is just plain dangerous

I didn’t know he was a chef until tattle, I only knew him from food unwrapped. I had never seen saturday kitchen
I tend to mix him up with another 'Food Unwrapped' man, who I once met when they filmed where I work....(underlining the need for diversity among presenters. Or perhaps underlining that I tend to think all men are the same ).

This is totally OT; but are you talking about Young Gums? I bought the weaning book, cooked a few of the recipes when I thought my eldest needed to love quinoa/coconut oil/guacamole etc- enjoyed the recipe book but when I looked up her account the other day, it had gone silent?!

On topic, JM is more productive (in the loosest of terms) with “rona than without.

Why do all her videos start with 10+ unedited seconds of emptiness, then the writer/author/campaigner/activist bio?

Why does she need a several minute-long intro before singing?

Why can't she film in landscape mode?!

So many questions...
every time she introduces herself i immediately am reminded of Garth Marenghi
I assumed it was the first book by Gill Rapley! There's actually a really nice recipe for spanish apple cake in there that i still use I did BLW when it was fairly new and my mum was consistently horrified about it.

TBH, it really makes me question Matt himself. We don't know much about his politics, do we? It seems quite likely that he and his wife share some views.
I was nosing on Mrs Matt’s Instagram a while ago and she was saying how wonderful brexit was and all that garbage and Matt told her to shush, so he seemed a little embarrassed by her SM chunterings. I’m on a Grunk so it may already have been mentioned.

too be fair I have heard much worse. and her waffling on was painful to listen too. Her singing certainly isn't anywhere near a professional or even x factor standard or even to put on youtube. absolutely no feeling or emotion in, better than many other people, in the words of cowell 'distinctly average' is a generous evaluation.

I’m cringing myself inside out just at your description. It can’t possibly be worse than the one that’s already been posted .. can it??

she sounds like one of the girls at my school that would just put a bit too much effort into our morning hymn at assembly

@Mystery Pistachio Milk Yes I am! Where did she go!? It’s a handy wee book for beginning weaning.
Loving your username!

On topic - Jack’s radio silence, making the Jackolytes worry or is she settling in for the finale of His Dark Materials? Would Jack ever do Strictly? I may have cried at it last night.

I suppose, like everyone else she is entitled to express herself, and many of her opinions I don't agree with, at least she isn't rabid with outrage like JM and her FM's.

Recipe: Potential Long Covid. Serves 200-500 or so Jackolytes and or confused squiggles. Cost: 0p/person, provided you give her attention

But of course, no way will she pass up the opportunity for ultimate martyrdom! So sick with a deadly virus but still she valiantly struggles on, just to help the poor. Increased sympathy and attention, followers think she's a wonderful, selfless human being - great motivation for the lazy narc.

This whole episode is alarming.
Jackolieo can “work” through Covid. Despite the temperature, the fatigue and woolly headedness.
Ergo..why can’t everyone else ? It can’t be so bad can it ?
She is so fu****g dangerous.

For sure and just because Matt may be a massive Tory doesn’t mean he’s in agreement with Brexit (which didn’t look like he was). He did take a veiled dig at Brexit towards the end of SK this week as well. Can’t remember what he said though. I bet they just don’t talk about it in their house, like lots of others.

They look lovely, I'm inspired to have a go myself.

I think that it was meant to be Jack's audition tape for celebrity x factor.

I guess she was hoping the researchers would stumble upon it, possibly after a nudge from her agent.
