I have finally grunked up to the start of this thread!

Probably well past it but the screenshot shared about her minor heart attacks talks about saying no to work and sleeping and resting. Yet another inconsistency with the 'poor' narrative... many people (myself included until very recently) don't have the luxury to take time off work to rest, even if that sounds counterintuitive

I LOVE that we have a Chard Truther in the cable. Out here getting those lies like it's whack-a-mole.

Dear God I’ve never read that before, it’s a whole “Play for Today “. Younger tattlers will have to google that.

The missing/stolen money tweets are on the wayback machine, if anyone wants to read them. They're also on here somewhere but I can't be arsed searching for them.

They were brilliant drama and made a lot of people think. I think Cathy Come Home was from them. Still relevant and worth a watch.

No

I treated a mate of mine to a weekend in Paris because she had a really really shitty year about 7 years ago. I think it cost about 600-700 and that was as cheap as I could get it without it being depressing.
You can if you’re lucky with flights (and Jack has the benefit of being near Heathrow, Gatwick and Luton which expands the cheap flight possibilities and makes the Eurostar realistic if she was really lucky with prices) and stay outside of Paris proper. I don’t think Jack would be capable of organising it, but if she’d had a competent girlfriend at the time they might have been.

I wonder if what she actually meant was they’re not providing hot meals at the moment due to COVID, which I know some places are still doing (and could be actually worthy of a campaign from the FSM angle if she could be arsed).

Lol she had to do this twice because she forgot her great friend the robot man in her first draft. Poor little robot guy.

Oh yeah if we had stayed outside of Paris for sure. Most of the cost was accommodation.

Is kicking someone in the shins has literally saved my life too long for a thread title?
