Big hugs to all of you who are affected by this new lockdown.

I have my bingo card ready for tomorrow:

Love it!!! And guess what, I prepared Slop Bingo a few days ago but wasn't sure if I could post it as I used an online template from a bingo card printing provider and did not want to drag them into the slop.
Yours is better, mine only contained food.

Journalism training???

Me too. I have done some minor stockpiling because I’m a shielder but Jack‘s made me realize I’m actually a massive bleep to do this, so obviously the only right and proper course of action is to immediately courier it all straight to the crappy bungalow. Enjoy my smol stock of gluten-free bread, oats and pasta and split lead that I secreted away because the shops ran out during the first lockdown and, as a coeliac, I struggled to have a decent meal. I know your need is greater than mine, Jack.
Alternatively you could blend it all together, add loads of black pepper and bung it all in a curry then freeze it for future ready meals??? Xx

But in all seriousness, I hope you and all the other tattlers are doing okay with the new lockdown measures throughout the UK. ❤

Why, why is she so allergic to actually cooking bleeping onions before using them in anything?
The joy of onions is to gently, softly cook them for as long as possible for their sweetness, then use them. Plus the smell is wonderful. Not bung them raw into every ghastly concoction.

That whole tuna, chickpea, tinned tomato 'recipe' is no more than 'put every ingredient in a pot at the same time and cook it for half an hour'. She literally cannot cook can she? Using slightly fancy words does not disguise this.

No, she can’t cook , there’s never any talk of releasing aroma, timings to get the best possible flavour and texture from food.

Bung it in.
Fold it in.
Marinade for hours.

It is always about slow, long hours of cooking which results in a pile of brown, unidentifiable bilge in a bowl.

She doesn’t have a clue.

Support?! Loool the bleeping cheek of it, he’s running this show 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ Name me anyone else who’s produced the tangible results that he has over the last few years? And that’s not even thinking about the immeasurable impact of his work like encouraging ppl to engage in their communities and small businesses helping ppl therefore ppl supporting their local SB in the long ter ? And hopefully influencing a generation of younger football fans to be more socially conscious? Like sorry to stan but SUPPORTING?

She’s vile

So, do we think that the explicit government statement about childcare bubbles being just for that and so the adults can work, and not for adults socialising is aimed at our dear friend.....

Going by her twitter skitters last night, it’s almost like she feels gleeful at the latest announcement, so she can haul out all the old tropes. She’s a bleeping ghoul.

I get a horrible feeling she is absolutely loving this tit. Makes her feel important.
Today has been a good day for her - inserting herself into Twitter spats (whilst pretending to be the voice of reason 😂) and the prospect of St Jack of the Unholy Slop single handedly advising people what to do with a half sucked Opal Fruit and and packet of Wotsits.

I'm so glad you said this as i was beginning to question my understanding of what a tortilla is
A tortilla is unleavened bread, I think they mean Spanish tortilla, ie Spanish omelette. Though as there are hundreds of recipes online, why they need to consult Jack is baffling.

Yes - Long Covid a distant memory - sooo last year (until someone annoyingly mentions it - then she reverts to being momentarily feeble but brave) and now the highly giddy posts with lots of !!!!!!!!!!
Grim.
