I've posted before about crappy days and you lads cheering me up etc, today I've had a good day and a really good therapy session and reading here is the icing on the slop and you need to know this 😍

Nigella can duck off though.

Instead of leggings, dry your hair with a towel or a special gadget called a hairdryer specifically designed for this purpose.
Apologies if already said, but the hairdryer can be a Dyson if you, too, have the most generous, forever gifting adult friends.

Jack's friends: forever gifting ❤
Jack: forever grifting :sneaky:

had to go and buy a new tin opener today
I had to buy a new one recently, and from Morrisons too.

Ended up with an OXO branded one for £8 and readers let me tell you, the build quality and functionality is amazing. The audible pop as it punctures the tin, the softy soft comfortable handle, the reassuring feedback from the twisting mechanism. etc etc

But, own brand 99p tin openers are the same thing.
Same materials the same build quality, the same tooling,

If your mileage varies and the little crap twisted metal handles hurt your hands then it is very obviously a massive plan from the Tories to stop the poors from opening SP Sketti hoops and they want us (not me) all to die.

Here’s a great bit from her blog, while she was living with Leggy. Break out the tiny violins!

Irritated by the heckled jibe from Fraser Nelson at the Spectator debate when I was talking about my £10 food shop, that “that’s not what it is not though, is it?” I rounded on him, wounded, telling him about Live Below The Line and challenging him to join me. The audience cheered. He didn’t take me up on it. And what marker of civil society is it that we seek to keep the poor ‘in their place’? That someone can take a shot at me for not being ‘poor enough’ any more, for not struggling hard enough, any more, for daring to have more than one kind of flour in my storecupboard, flour bought with 70 hour working weeks and more than a trace of exhaustion around my ragged edges?
I like the look of that egg cooker, but I have an addiction to kitchen gadgets, and no cupboard space. Pity me.

Imagine having the brass neck to like this when her whole 'career' is "pretending to be poor"
