she complained about that and then changed chetna's recipe by covering n mayo and addng crispy onions or somethingAlso her rant about people using substitutes in her recipes (absolutely toe curling to watch) - doesn’t she usually say you can use ANY oil and ANY veg and literally replace ANYTHING with ANYTHING so what the fuck is she on about?
Yassssss. I came for the JM chat, but stayed for the appliances and I’m glad I did!Looool I think this was me! I had two of them, both vax via Amazon.
The first was Vax Dual Power Carpet Cleaner 2.7 litre, 800W (it’s grey and orange) and doesn’t have the attachment. If you just want to do carpets it’s fab, it’s discounted I think from £180 to £115 odd? I think the “body” of the device is exactly the same as my second one so unless you specifically need the attachment just go for this. Also you can do rugs etc and they come up looking brand new from the shop, I was considering retiring a 4/5 year old rug before using this!
The second was the Vax Dual Carpet Cleaner, 2.7 litre, 800 W grey (it’s blue and grey in the pics). This is the separate attachment to do upholstery or little bits, which is actually fucking brilliant I thought it’d be a bit of a gimmick? I did the sofa with it and it smells SO fresh when you sit down now & looks newer. It’s really convenient for little patches too, annoyingly our cats are often sick and I just turn it on and blitz the patch. We have a built in carpet welcome mat bit by the front door and I’ve done some of the grubby bits on that too. It would work on stairs but depending on how tall/robust you are you may need a second person to help carry the body of the unit, I’m only 5 foot and would feel at risk of falling down the stairs with it tbh?
Sorry for the essay haha but I definitely think it’s a worthy investment, around here it’d be a few hundred quid to get a couple of rooms done professionally and I know they use a better machine but our house isn’t that high traffic so I’d rather have something convenient I can use regularly for spillages or cat sick.

Every time I looked at it... I scrolled through.... Jack wasn’t even on screen ... presumably doing a chaos in the cornerI've just got round to watching the insta video and I cant believe how woefully underprepared Jack was, I mean if I was to turn up to my job so badly unprepared and unready I'd be lucky if I still had a job by the end of it.
Even if you were to ignore the first 10 minutes of video of her muttering to herself and sorting everything out ...(which she'd had all day to do!)
I just cannot bloody believe she didnt even have a decent knife handy to start with, I mean surely if you are cooking that's got to be one of the main essentials to have standing by?!
I loved Chetna though, she was brilliant so calm and soothing and knowledgable Jack/Helmans should be doubling Chetnas fee for the amount of carrying the show she did
Not the full thing, but there are courses and JM of course did get 24 grand from KH, plus monthly patreon and paypal. She can afford a course or two, to learn how to cook.https://www.leiths.com/professional-courses/leiths-international-diploma-in-food-and-wine
Possibly this? Certainly more than we've ever had to live on, but they have a huge range of courses which would 'legitimise' her for varying amounts of £££
Exactly. They do intermediate courses which cost half this. She's a business and surely she could claim back costs via her business account anyway? Or take out a business loan if she felt it would benefit her 'brand'https://www.leiths.com/professional-courses/leiths-international-diploma-in-food-and-wine

Absolutely. Or get her arse down to the local training college and do a course there. Not as ritzy as Leith's, but even a proper celebrity like James Martin did his time at the one in my old town of Scarborough.Exactly. They do intermediate courses which cost half this.

Most local colleges have evening or weekend cooking classes for not a lot of money. Wonder why she never took one. Probably easier to sling slop in a bowl and call it food.Absolutely.

Aaah a toddler, yes it 100% sounds like you need the second one with the attachment! It sounds wasteful I bought two but the first I lent out to a friend pre lockdown & couldn’t get back, we’re expecting and I kept seeing ads for local firms that do buggy & car seat cleaning for £50 a piece, you could likely do that stuff yourself with the attachment too so I figured just buy this you’ll recoup quickly, and gift the old one to MIL when I get it back. Tbh even re-reading the titles you can see they have the same litre capacity & wattage so surely they’re literally the same machine with different accessories?Yassssss. I came for the JM chat, but stayed for the appliances and I’m glad I did!
Before we go any further, just wanted to check if you forgot to mention that this is an #ad for Vax? I know how easy it is to do hun.
In all seriousness, thank you. I’ve been going round in circles on Amazon (best option for me as lots of places still shut down here) wondering what to get. They all look pretty bulky and same-y, but what I definitely need is a decent handheld tool because it’s my sofas that are driving me up the wall with their current shabby unchicness. My toddler has been smearing god knows what over them, and they could definitely use a freshen up.
I was wondering whether to go for one of the spot cleaners, but realistically I can envisage having to clean up lots of unmentionables from the carpet as we begin to navigate toilet training, and one of the big yokes would do the job more quickly. I’m also a shortarse so will make sure that Mr Alpha pulls his weight!
Hahahah of course she had to bring this up now! Must make sure people remember that jack and jack alone is the main victim or everything in the whole world everVictim of racism and misogyny, two boxes ticked in one go!
She couldn't and wouldn't take instruction - she would be a nightmare to teach, constantly trying to one-up everyone else and 'interjecting' her ideas.Not the full thing, but there are courses and JM of course did get 24 grand from KH, plus monthly patreon and paypal. She can afford a course or two, to learn how to cook.
to be fair to her, I can well believe that - in my younger days I had 3 CVs - so let's say for those of you that don't know me my name is Victoria - one had Victoria, one had Vikki and one had Vic - the Vic one got by far the best response and I have a bog standard English surname. This was around 1992 but I can't imagine things had changed that much by the time JackMelissa was looking for workVictim of racism and misogyny, two boxes ticked in one go!
This just made my eyes roll so hard I was concerned they may not reappearVictim of racism and misogyny, two boxes ticked in one go!
Yes, absolutely.Essential journey?
apparently she thinks she never has to actually take the time to learn a skill or practice or prepare, it’s just everyone else’s job to let her turn up and fanny about or “learn on the job”I mean, this just says it all.
I cannot decide if this is everyone losing it in lockdown or hey would be like this regardless ?"some people like to separate their work and home"
Er... She's set up a fake kitchen in her dining room. I would imagine that's created far more upheaval and chaos than just, yknow, cooking in your already established working kitchen
Even the people who stand up for her have lost all normality when it comes to Jack's life.
