Why didn't she wear that suit she bought after the DIVA shoot? That was baggy enough to cope with a few stones additional weight. It looked shit, but let's be honest, so do all her clothes.
Yes I wondered about that suit. Wasn't it worth about £300? Should appeal to her snobbish nature. I hope she didn't dye it black.

I too got stuck in something - a dress in a very small changing room in Kookai (RIP). Amazing how panic and sweat levels go from 0 - 100 in 5 seconds No knives involved but I did break the zip

May well be wrong, but cockney urchins don’t put ‘The’ in front of ordinary road names. We only use it for The Kings Road, and The Old Kent Road. Randomly The-ing roads in Islington is so posh. Signed, a cockney.
What kind of tourist bothers saying CaledonIan? It’s Cally Rd!

I bet that suit is still screwed up in the bottom of her wardrobe. Just another impulse buy.

I've had the awards thingy on live and mute. Kept taking a look/listen but didn't see or hear any pixie presence. Seems to have finshed streaming after an hour.

Sorry if this was picked up previously but I was just checking if her publisher had liked any of her performative book chaos tweets (spoiler alert - she hasn't) and I found this:

Didn't she say to a squig it was 100 recipes for the book but she'd done more as she's so awesome? If that's the case how come the book states 150 recipes as the baseline?

Love these but have to admit I prefer that dark That’s Life mag spin off which covers all the batshit crime and spooky stories:

Aborted oats came back to HAUNT ME!

I was STALKED by a SPACEMAN with a box!

Oh my gosh, has she not turned up again?

Are we going to get an essay tomorrow on why, including sad sob story of not fitting into an old dress?

Could have been Oxfam IF she got it on the King's Road
Cally is North, Kings Rd is West. Jeez even the charity shops in Hackney back in the day kept the Spenny designer stuff locked away, with a hand written note of what they had and a price, you had to ask to see it!
Viv is what scouse schoolgirls wear.

Someone has just liked a post of mine from thread 31. I’m cringing at my 2 years ago self where I was kindish to Jack. I can’t edit it now so I’d just like to retract a lot especially the part where I said “I’m genuinely sorry you are having a shitty time”. Since the kitten happened I’m not sorry at all and any sympathy I felt has long gone. Thankspaceyou
