I don't know what the rules are down south at the moment but when my downstairs neighbour's daughter tested positive she only had to isolate for 10 days. Her mum had to isolate for 14 days despite never getting a positive test, purely because she was living with her COVID positive daughter.

That therapist has, in my opinion, theorised a bit too far there. Jamie explained that he has to redraw most lines 3-5 times and the therapist concluded that he works 3-5 times as hard as some people. How can she come to that conclusion? What if most people have to redraw lines 5-7 times? Jamie would then be working half as hard as some people.
The therapist has no other data to compare what is a usual amount of line redraws. I think the therapist has speculated a bit far without any proof or even a cursory investigation, yet she thinks she has enough information to make that comment. I wouldn't go to any therapist that feels it's ok to come to a conclusion without checking out the data.
However Jack says that everything she cooks, she cooks right first time, so how does she relate that to rubbing out and starting over 3-5 times? Most recipe creators take many many times to perfect their recipes. Hence Jack works far less than most people, surely.

I have just read the guidance and Jack should still be isolating as she is still so severely and extremely ill.
COVID-19 symptoms and what to do
Find out about the symptoms of COVID-19, what to do if you or your child has them and when to get medical help.
You are, of course, correct, dear Mr Bee, but what you fail to fully understand is how special this guy is. Just like JM, his life is harder than anyone elses and you with your logic and reason need to stop raining on his parade. Also, did you know that JM gets all recipes done in one AND meticulously, forensically tests them?
That squiggle does ask a good question though. As far as I’m aware, the rule here is that if you’re still feeling ill at the 10-day point, you have to continue isolating (the NHS website says this). So if Jack is still claiming to feel terrible, which she seems to be*, she shouldn’t be going out.
* I know it’s all lies and bollocks, but you’d think the more gullible squiggles might be questioning this. Whenever they ask if she’s feeling better, she says she’s not. So which is it?

Doing a bit more symptom shopping I see 
One of my fave Anthony Worrall Thompson anecdotes is that he once ran away with a woman
Erm sorry if this has been mentioned but I was out for a bit - she's replied to a tweet from an editor at the Daily Express with "cheers boss".
Sorry I am too angry at her bullshit to screenshot

I'm sorry but is that squiggle cracked. I dont want to surmise...but I'm going to is this why this country cant shake off this pandemic if she thinks going to the chippy 10 days after a supposed positive test is ok? While still having symptoms? Is this common? Cos we look at the people that follow jack and think wow how dont they see it why cant they work it out. But are we the outliers? The minority? Surely not?
Has she removed her 'poorly, bring me soups fam' post?
...... because it just makes sense to do that.
I mean seriously does she think that without her explanation no one could figure that out???
The one with the photo? It's still there. It's a mention, not a general tweet.
Also, you are shite at presenting!! Jaysus, that last thread was epic...I was abused as a child, and a lot of the abduction chat was triggering, so apologies for not commenting much.
in other news, Joe Wicks (who I’m not a fan of) was on R2 interviewing THAT MAN today. He came across so well, very natural and very adaptable to varying needs when everyone was panic buying, and he was doing his quick budget recipe shows. Mrs. B bought me his ‘7 Ways’ book for Christmas, and it’s absolutely brilliant!
Sorry to bring up this terribly self pitying ‘sick of the sickest’ photo but just to remind ourselves that she’s 32 years old and posting utter bollocks like this.

SHAN’T!!!!
So she couldn’t post her patraeon recipe cards in case the postman touched her ‘rona seeped envelopes, but is ok with endangering the express seller, the chip shop owner and (if the timeline isn’t lies) the express photographer and the lady who took her picture in two tan coloured underwear body suits. It’s not a bleeping surprise that the UK a has the highest COVID cases ever reported today, omg. Stay in your plague bungalow Jack!
Edit- plus whoever she met in the 50p dead mans coat.

Sara Pascoe tells an anecdote very similar to this in her Lads Lads Lads show which aired on telly last night.
Not just the UK but “Southend-on-Sea now one of the worst affected areas in England following surge in Covid-19 cases”, according to the linked report.
Mainly due to bleeping idiots like Jack, no doubt, scampering about all over the place looking for newspapers and chippy teas while they’re meant to be isolating.
Essex seaside town has now become one of England's Covid hotspots
The infection rate in Southend-on-Sea has once again risen
The”if you are still really unwell” is great, especially as I think Squiggle meant it genuinely nicely
