[Don't Panic]

This is very true and is exactly the sort of mindset Jack has which is the same of wealthy kids who’ve never had to worry about cash. We’d all dearly love to follow our passions. If I didn’t have rent to pay, I’d write to my heart’s content and volunteer a couple of days a week in an animal shelter. But I can’t put up a Patreon and expect others to fund me while I do that. Which is why I work, earn money, and fit the things I love in part time. Like every other adult who isn’t independently wealthy.

Has she ever had a ‘proper’ job since The Poverty? Genuine question.

No Chesney off Coronation Street.

Easy to confuse the two.

I hope you told them it wasn’t seasoned, and thus wouldn’t burn, and would be very volatile on an open

Giggly fun. That poor kid must be a saint. I literally despise people who get all overexcited and irritatingly enthusiastic-and they’re always the one who just kills the mood. A parent being like that is even worse. I would never have allowed any of my mates over the doorstep if my parents behaved like that-so embarrassing for him.

Mama? Give over.

I get such a buzz from decluttering. We've moved several times in our marriage and every time it's glorious to send stuff off to people who need things we don't use and sell a few bits to help with the cost of moving.
I shudder to think what's in all those snake baskets.

Here you go, bet you anything she’s doing something for AA - Alcohol Awareness Week is in November.

Nah they don't partner with celebs...or even Z list slebs. She may've been asked to speak at an AA convention. She'll love that. Dopamine hits and adoration a go go.

I think somebody already did! I vaguely recall that it showed that the owner wasn't a family member.

Can confirm this.

This is going to make a lovely shelter for the Thorpe Bay rats when the weather starts getting cold. Excellent set up - against a wall with lots of little spaces for them to enter. And hide...

What was that other Terribly Exciting Thing the other week she kept going on about that she couldn't talk about, did she ever post anything more about that?

Maybe she sends all her faithful followers a private message to let them know what all these Terribly Exciting Things are. All done when she's on the loo, of course.

my understanding is that the “exciting thing“ is generally thought to have been a misleading/vague hint towards the upcoming apparently life changing stuff around having to move, but framed in such a way that people thought she was going to be announcing a fun/opportunity like Strictly, but were then sympathetic to apparent sudden bad fortune

According to someone on MN...!

She's not above using Mishcon Reya to send threatening letters to people who haven't written about her as favourably as she'd like.

A year for softwood, two for hardwood. Eucalyptus is a hard wood

Thanks Granny. We had a tree felled and only needed to wait a year so must have been soft wood. (Ooooh matron etc)

Everything about her screams middle class. I mean how many people these days really have real fireplaces as opposed to, ya know, radiators? Or gas ‘fireplaces’ in older houses like my dad?
Or Am I the one who’s out of touch here? Do loads of people in actual fact have real fireplaces on which they burn wood and dance around singing pagan songs in honour of Goddess Jack, Rinser of Hoops and Slayer of White Wingers? I actually don’t even know what’s normal anymore.

Rural properties without mains gas etc often have open fireplaces and solid fuel stoves, I have lived in 6 such properties, and wood is quicker to get going than coal etc.

Grunting from page 8 so send staminos but I had a Jackesque moment today.

Was listening to my choons when walking to the Post Office to send my Vinted bits and pieces (no hardcore pawn for me). When I pulled my phone out of my bag to get ready to pay, for whatever reason Spotify and Facebook had decided to have their eyes meet and, via the ‘share’ button, I was one tap away from letting everyone on my FB list know I was listening to a song that’s title translates to ‘Big Tits’.

Pissed myself laughing at the counter but for SO MANY REASONS couldn’t fully disclose why.

Point is - nothing published despite that being a two-click command, and my phone was unlocked as I walked half a mile. There is no way Jack’s phone performed the gymnastics she claimed it did.

Anyway, enjoy.

Spooky! I am actually listening to that song this very moment! Are you in my phone?!!!
The Zeit album is in the cd player non stop!!!

I bet Gucci are bricking it.

Has Jack had her teeth done (veneers or something?). Old photos show a lot of gum when she smiles but now it’s gone. Or is that lip fillers somehow doing that?

Yep, lip fillers and botox do that.

 

[Swisspea]

Did you have to show him any jewellery you owned?

No indeed you wise fraus were correct and the bling had no effect at all.

Grunking from the recent past to say, you need to let wood dry out for about a year before you can burn it. Is she going to cart all of that to her teeny one bed flat? And said flat has an open fire?
