Or the night she met Will Smith at a Downing Street party and he whispered “You’re Jack Monroe aren’t you?” and asked for a photo, before they rapped Fresh Prince together - while Teresa May did the Maybot in the background
Fresh Prince? Almost completed it mate!

Still not sure if by “Jeffrey” she meant DJ Jeffrey “Jazzy Jeff” Townes, or the actor Joseph Marcell who played Geoffrey.

You’ve got to feel sorry for the baked bean factories. They’ve only just finished relabelling all those tins as smart price , and now they’ve got to go back and start again

It's the poor old team of nerds having to go back and re-do all the Smart Price entries on the Vehement Backsplash Impotence that I feel for. They've been working on that for ages now. I hope this doesn't delay the launch for Jack.

Some poor soul’s got to update the spreadsheet too. And someone colour the labels yellow. There’s at least three or four people in the chain to think about here. When I worked at one of the big four supermarkets I was involved in every aspect of the relabelling process and it isn’t something they do lightly, a lot of thought will have gone into it - at least two weeks in total. If Tattle doesn’t work out for me in my long term career aspirations, I’d love to go back there. Good times 💗

Me posting a song might actually be on topic for once, given the thread title, but I SHAN'T.

Oh dear, that means all the Venomous Bod Ceann Infestation data is junk. Because the items are not the same.

What a shame. Ten years' work hoarding receipts and scribbling in Moleskins for bugger all.

Mind you, it's been very useful, her campaigning, to publicise ASDA getting rid of all the old stock/giving them free advertising without realising people are buying the fag ends of stuff.

What really grates my corned beef here is that Mr. Asda was able to order a nationwide repackaging (of mid-range products, they are all the same you know...I once drove past a factory on my way to Redcar and saw it through the window) and roll-out of Smart Price products within days when JM demanded it, but now they are teasing this new range which won't be widely available to The Poors until the summer?! Outrageous.

It’s crazy isn’t it? I’m sure Jack is doing all she can to help get this pushed out faster?

Thanks, I couldn't actually remember the name of the band off the top of my head.
Neither could I but it’s earwormed me. It must have been out during a good time because I feel happy when I hear it.

ETA Sept 96 🥰
