Where is her Del Monte stuff? It's a month in to a six month "gig" and all she's done is that undeclared mandarins advertorial.

So cool that she is aware of the word 'charlatan' - nearly there. Now, just her grasping of its meaning to go...
She read it here...I wrote that about her on Thursday at 6.12pm. I don't know how to quote from a previous thread but this is what I said.

So her first book took 18 months and a team of 20 people in addition to a professional publisher? Yet she talks about it as though she did the whole thing herself.

Everything about her screams charlatan.

Once again she reads a word here and it sticks in her head. She doesn't have an original thought. The amount of times something is said on these threads that she regurgitates is gobsmacking (see how long it is before she uses that one)

They never have - but she must have it harder than anyone else - all the while our lockdown babies haven’t met most their family & will be traumatised when they have to start nursery. But heaven forbid Jack has to hang out with her Victorian child!

Sticking my head over the parapet to say, no, your babies won't be traumatised by Nursery. They'll love it, just as children starting Reception did before it was expected to go to baby yoga, baby massage, baby socialisation, baby signing, playgroups and everything else. They'll be secure and loved and cared for and will find playing with other little people, toys, activities and learning songs absolutely wonderful.

Same way the Reception and Year 1 children won't 'fall behind' and be permanently damaged intellectually - they'll be going to school and attending at the later age that some of the most academically successful countries start formal education and, because they will be ready for it, their learning will explode in that time. The little ones will, I'm sure, be fine when formal, in person schooling is safer for staff and society as a whole.

Thank you for this, it means a lot and feels like a hug right now tbh, I feel really guilty for not doing any of those classes with her too for fear of covid, plus have the ever nearing terror of her starting nursery, to the point I may delay returning to work. Who knows ey, certainly not the bleeping government 😂

Just tit isn’t it, at least we can channel our collective sadness into outrage and lols here xx

If a sock puppet tweets her 'I have three tins of Del Monte pineapple, what shall I do with it' I shall explode.

I think nursery should be more scared of my little head than she is of them, to be honest. Child's completely feral. Someone sent me a link to zoom Baby Massage, I can't even get a bloody nappy on her, let alone a nice soothing massage.

There’s a queue to get on to Asda’s website at the moment, bet Jack is loving that.
