That’s reminded me of my other point…. She says about posh chefs using their own electric to cook as they go and the POORS and her can’t do that cos of power costs. Erm they aren’t doing that to brag about their ability to use electric it’s er called cooking!!

Or quietly, softly refund those she deems too poor to donate or subscribe (by using her magical database that she found in a puddle)
Very slightly off topic but what makes me so mad about her is that I support an actual author on Patreon and she’s having chemo at the moment. This is how she keeps her supporters updated. And if someone who writes gentle stories about woodland creatures and the Patreon tier rewards involve those creatures sending you cards/books/recipes can do this, in between rounds of chemo, surely fighty mouthy Jack Monroe could manage it in between flogging her diamonds?
Even in ‘restaurant parlance’ grift is still grift.
Welcome back. Sorry for your loss
I was beginning to think your absence was suspicious based on the last 14 threads (if you know you know)
I can’t really summarise other than the Elmo flames gif
I did wonder if she'd had contact with one of the exes (specifically LJC in this scenario really) and the ring post was a personal dig at her.
She's done things before where she's seemed so desperate to post a dig or an in-joke to someone that she's seemingly entirely forgotten that everyone can see it and it doesn't make her look good. The hiding of JO's books, that hoover gif, there'll be others I'm forgetting.
She left at some point during covid times but we can't pinpoint it exactly.
She's real. There is photo, surname and fundraiser (for her poorly child) evidence.
It’s a great way of taking your mind off other stuff though, so enjoy the thread recaps and hopefully tomorrow goes as well as it can.
Summary: she rinsed her hoops, sold her lightbulbs again, claimed to not have enough money for shower gel so was melting old soap bars with water (how RIDICULOUS does this sound?), went on a begging spree, cashed in big time, definitely didn’t get more Botox, found 3 diamond rings and sold them (AFTER selling her lightbulbs and receiving loadsa cash to her PayPal from the beg) and much tea was spilled about why OH scarpered. #TheDordrechtMysteries.
PS nothing changes!
PPS that will be a tenner and a can of (unrinsed) hoops please.
ETA Molly! I forgot about Molly!
I'm also a Patreon of hers and she definitely comes through - for me it's worth it just to have all her lovely little stories so nicely categorised. I really hope she's well soon!
13 years married here with a lovely family. I'm not love starved at all. Also you did all the proposing Jack, I deduce you bought the rings. Next time try harder w
Her lack of understanding of the term "generous" continues to be her downfall.
It's been on my mind, with JM being an alcoholic. That's money aside from the £20 a week on food. I think she's been spending £15 maybe £20 on groceries etc when she has SB one, maybe 2 days a week. That's where she's pulling up the £20 a week nonsense from. When SB isn't with her she's been on the lash and scraping up meals from what she has to hand. That's JM maths.
Just to say, I'm not judging anyone with addictions but the money to pay for it isn't included in the weekly shop.

“Love-starved balls of bitterness and resentment”
What was it you said about old ‘Fingers’ Kerridge again Jack?
Thank(space)you
And wrote a well researched and written book, turned up to interviews for it, didn't sniff her way through them or wail about how simply awful her life is...
It's why she has tiers on her patreon that JM would be simply fummin' over.
@whereforartthoupumble I did not know you were a chef. May I ask you your professional opinion, which is that in your opinion, do Jacks recipes show or have ever shown any hint of culinary talent or insight or even knowledge?
This is a genuine question not a rhetorical one. I’m your typical basic witch who knows about six recipes from scratch and just sticks to what she knows so although all her recipes look disgusting to me, the fact that she’s had so many books published would seem to suggest that there must have been at least some hint of talent or originality in there somewhere? Or is it genuine pure cosplay gimic? I’d love to know your thoughts.
@MancBee so happy to have you back, I was wondering where you were during the ultrachaos of the last 10 days. Basically, the grift is being exposed and you’ve got a hooting n fizzing grunk ahead of you!
Yeah poor old Borbora might have a quibble there too
How dare you trigger the poors by posting your privileged M&S beans. They can never hope to have a haricot legume (in restaurant parlance- to translate for the working class you can just call em beanz). Why can’t you be like Jack and just post about maize snacks and bollock sausages and allow them to dream of squashing their noses against the window of an M&S shop to get a whiff of a Percy Pig. I should know…
myself I once went to school with someone who said they had walked past a council estate once.
That bloody Caroline, losing her hands, just bloody careless, what would Borb say?
