You can all duck off with your Granola tit, I’ve been waiting for my secret ingredient since October 2020
it's not a competition and all that, but I'm waiting for 138 things to be done since October 2020

coincidentally, The Secret Ingredient is #100 on the (alphabetised) list 🥰

she was meant to be getting round to a food truck of joy and the slow cooker xmas dinner by this month

Jay Rayner did a review in the Guardian this week about a posh new pub/restaurant that has opened up in what was one of the roughest part of Salford. He was waxing lyrical about the food though even he thought it was expensive.

I would pay good money to read his review of Jack's Greek-ish Taverna. Though it could be something unique like an Irish Taverna serving Greek/Irish fusion food...goodness knows what that would look like.
Dunno what it would be like but I’m buying all the domain names of a new portmanteau I thought of first, so it’s mine

Ahhh, now I know why she's been insufferable the last couple of days.
New notice from Companies House issued on Monday, so hence the manic tin rattling!! Sorry if this has been posted already dear fraus. Two months from now, is Valentines Day!

So the items deemed to be 'bona vacantia'... Do we reckon she bought the side boards with her company account?

Obviously she will have done. Can't afford those sideboards on the minimum wage she totally pays herself.

I wish I understood all this tit, but alas, I don’t understand at all.

Sooooo, as it stands currently, Jack has to weigh up what is worse: having her company struck off and any money in business accounts seized, or submitting her accounts and revealing exactly how much money she’s made over the last two years (which would include Patreon handouts)?

Surely to goodness she can’t be prepared to relinquish her money like that… or does she simply need to make sure her business accounts are empty (god knows she could have rinsed them long ago) in which case it’s no great financial loss?

I’m just trying to figure out how on earth she can justify being so reckless/blasé.

I have a friend called Irene and this is her new nickname.
On topic the ❄ rumours could explain the nasal quality of the voice, even the tremulous singing. I don't know, I hate the stuff myself but people close to me like it and it does a lot of damage to the nasal/septum area.

Reckless is right- to have made the money she has after being ‘poor’ and not looking after that money so she isn’t ‘poor’ again.
What an example for her son

I’d imagine the head is firmly in the sand atm. Hence spending a day dying rags grey.

Yeah. It destroyed my nose. I won’t go into the gory details 🤢

And you do sound nasally and bunged up and constantly sniffing all the time. A permanent case of Colombian flu.

She’s obviously not been filing her accounts. Been spending the tax money on ❄?! And black clothes dye.

I didn’t listen to the radio interview she did a few months ago, but didn’t people complain that she was sniffing constantly? 😳

We may be running away with this theory, but it does make a lot of sense. Alcohol is somewhat more socially accepted when discussing addiction issues, but perhaps it was more than that. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’ll await Jack to clear this up...

I’m surprised that mums-net thread is still up - there so sleb friendly and lawyer averse!
I’ll be gutted if a story breaks from them, mind you it could be libellous so they can crack on

I think Falkor explained before that this is the last chance - file the missing accounts by Valentine’s Day otherwise the crown seizes you business and assets - everything in the Ltd company

She'll doubtless be gutted she can't blame it on us, but without us she'd probably never have noticed it.

In circles I used to mix in many moons ago it was common for everyone to have 'weekend flu'. Definitely makes you bunged up, even for days after. It would explain a lot of things with her tbh.

Well done on kicking what is a bloody tough habit to break Brian xx

I’m not defending Jack, but I’d take anything from mumsnet with a pinch of salt.

There’s a lot fantasists there, and it’s where Jack herself used to go and tell tall-tales. I also wonder if the person who started that thread got their wires crossed and had read what Jack said about David Walliams? (insert “ .: who bleeping knows” here).

Either way it’s not something I‘d judge anyone for.
