I could imagine that after a while when the fuss about her sleeping on the sofa dies doen, she'll announce that in preparation for the Big Move, she's going to be living in a tent in the garden since its the same size as her new flat

Quoting myself like a (proud) ninny but I just thought of Adrian saying ‘I have never seen a dead body or a female nipple. This is what comes of living in a cul de sac’. Made me laugh all over again. We need laughs here in the Frau Squad.
Ah I love the part where he asks his parents what sort of son they would have liked & they take the whole supermarket visit and journey home telling him His dad wanted a ruddy cheeked, womanising sportsman and his mum wanted a lefty, willowy, wise soul whose best friend was an old African woman. To bring it back to Jack, that’s a conversation I’d love to overhear.

She has deployed the “yes but because” defence again, something we’ve come to expect from her against this class of opposition. We have simultaneously too much information about the sleeping arrangements and too little reasoned logic. It’s a classic Monroeuver at this stage in the game Jeff, and we can expect to see more of this tactic in the second half. I’m thinking it’ll go to extra time.

The basis of her shopping method is that you have a well stocked freezer, store cupboard and leftovers from the week before? No wonder she only spends ‘£20’. Could she be any more of a tricksy pixie fraud?
Based on that criteria my shop has been £6.90 ....I win Jack!

This time last year...

We were in the short-lived cabbage era and thread #205 spanned 7 DAYS. SEVEN DAYS!

My nana dressed better than Jack and she was vision impaired.
I’m only just crawling onto page one after an exhausting day of existence, so have likely missed many a hilarious chaos, but I’d really love this to be a thread title!
Now fuck off x

She's marked out the size of the flat with tape and is using a piece of cardboard to represent furniture/content/herself to see if it will fit

Here at Pimpinella Towers we use them. Admittedly the napkins are mostly vintage ones and fit with my desire to live in the 1950s...when men wore hats and opened doors...not traaazers falling down and elbowed you out the way...

Alright Frau,

Anyone have access through their local library?

I'm curious if this is just a rehash of her precious BBC Good Food horrors

Vlad, please stop giving me ads for stunt hair. I haven't got a book coming out at a nebulous, ever-shifting time so don't need to worry about continuity x

You’ve just reminded me of another era. Curly Hair Jack. Wait, was she following that thing or was she drying her hair with leggings because she is lazy?

The diabetes thing may be my aneurism and it hasn't even happened yet.

T1 diabetes is one of the auto-immune conditions I have that I mentioned in my other posts. Had it around 30yrs now since I was 11. The prospect of her giving dietry advice in any form to T1 diabetics is terrifying... if she doesn't get 'em with malnutrition she'll get 'em with dodgy carb advice!
