Just wanted to say that SB'S dad does not have a brother.
He has a sister and BiL, but no brother.
I think we can officially cross him out in the Harold sweepstakes, although my money was on him being Harold.

Someone has tagged one of TD’s mates lol
Jack should be very careful here, as a lot of food writers have really put a lot of time and effort into Food for Ukraine over the last five weeks and helped to raise funds and awareness, while Jack has done precisely nothing, not even a retweet. If the person tagged in happens to have written several books about travelling and food in the region (Black Sea, Red Sands ... ) this will not end well for Jack.

On a grunk (these threads are so FAST) so sorry where this lands...but considering she 'apparently' has starving OAPs and single dads contacting her for help getting food, it's really bad form to be bragging about bedtime snacks, giant 2am sandwiches and seconds of dinner...like knock yourself out Jack eat what you want but keep your supposed audience in mind. I bet they wish they could be so fucking poor if they actually existed.

Reader, I gasped!! It takes a lot these days, but I just had to actively make a decision to close my mouth. I am shooketthhhhhh!! She’s gone for Jamie, AGAIN

She’s such a spiteful little prick. I tell you what, say that to Nigella about Nigellissima. I double dare you, Jack, you fucking cretin. This, says the cunt who just bastardised stroganoff! Is this my aneurysm??

Could OH (if real, of course 🥸) be Polish? Would explain the Polish sausage she now has in every meal, buying lots of random animal parts for stews and harping on about being into that geographical region.
That's a good call. But we've never heard any more about the leg of goat, 2 hearts, 12 trotters and that other assorted 90% vegan nonsense in the backpack. We're back to cheap sausage and mushroom slop. I'd be genuinely interested to know what you could do with a dozen pig's feet. Not something I've ever tried, but Jack seems to have gone sheepish (sorry) about it.

ETA: I'm turning myself inside out over the apostrophe in pig's. Can't work out which side of the 's' it should go. I think I got it right, otherwise it's referring to a dozen pigs. Only got E grade english at A level and it was a very long time ago. Never had to write anything down for a living. Fair play to Jack though. She's come a long way with her qualifications. Newcomers, see the Southend English Jactionary in the Wiki for evidence.
