Jack Monroe #163 Not saying anything new

[Pocahontas]

Congratulations to @colouredlines for the thread title! Your prize: one Burberry Scarf (which you may need to have re-embroidered).

Recap of last thread

1. Clear your diary for 6pm on the 16 March. She’s doing a live for Del Monte.
2. She asked if there was a ‘friendly oncologist’ in amongst her followers. She deleted it.
3. She had ‘something burning a hole’ in her chest about ‘growing up female’ and ‘no longer identifying as a “woman”’. Prepare for Potatoes II: The Reckoning.
4. Make sure you tag the right newspaper when things are tiresome and you’re in a rage.
5. She had some things to say. She’s not saying anything new.
6. Somebody has lost a very dear scarf. If you find it, there will be a reward and no questions asked.
7. Spoiler: Useful

You were quicker than me, I was still trying to scan through to write the recap - I don't know how you do it! But I'm glad to see I was on the right lines with awarding @colouredlines a checked Burberry scarf too

Apologies @Falkor - I didn’t mean to pip you to the new thread! I’ll leave the next one for ya

No worries at all, you are the absolute mistress of them - they move so fast and I'm not always about (though it does feel like I spend my life superglued to Tattle at times, the joys of self-employment...)

It’s from the last thread, but I think her basically having lied about having a lemon drizzle when it was a peach cake shows how compulsive it is for her.

Anyone else would have tweeted the pic of the brick cake with a “I have a peach drizzle, does that count?” but she just can’t resist the urge to lie.

I also described the scarf thing to Mr Bol who deeply regretted asking why I was laughing and he said he was surprised she didn’t give L a scarf with “Jack Monroe” emblazoned on it.

I’m always very happy for someone else to do it. You’ll have your hands full soon with the lambikins

That's 4am on Wednesday for me. I don't have Instagram either. Crying shame, I'll have to miss it.

You're clearly not dedicated to the cause enough.
I once spent an afternoon scouring FB groups trying to find if someone had lost a Burberry scarf (in a puddle) to try and verify her story. #dedication #cabalforever

Let's acknowledge that the words of the thread title come from our dear unt @Jack_M herself. I know she's AWAY, so here's a little tribute.

@Harrybosch I'm sourcing upside down pineapples.

Geography teacher vibes (sorry for any Geography teachers here)

Who's bothering her now then?!

Why doesn't she just stay off twitter and deal with her daily drama then the "vicious twits" won't be able to annoy her.

If you're not in pet, they can't bother you.

Jack looks like she’s ready to go to the allotment in this pic. She should get an allotment, it’ll keep her occupied and away from Twitter
Constant supply of 🧅 too to accompany the tinned fruit in her recipes #allotmentjack

Think of the grunkaing though! Best stock up on your favourite snacks and drinks to get you through.

It is rare for us upside downers to get a live action chaos.

Hard to tell who is taking the piss on Twatter.
