Omg so it's by choice? It's not her inner hollowness showing, accidentally?

I have honestly never spent that much on a book, even at uni. I used the library for books i needed. Thats a shocking price .

The price is high for a slop and old hair manual.

I wonder if her publishers are going to link up with TT or the like in a teemill style "5p from every sale will pay for a pov to have emergency slop rations for 19 days".

Strangely, Mrs Beeton wasn't quite all she seemed.
"Isabella Beeton was only 21 when she began cookery writing. Her first recipe for Victoria sponge was so inept that she left out the eggs"
Mrs beeton Invented the toast sandwich can’t believe mackie hasn’t stolen that one, I mean it wouldn’t be slop.

Yes it’s a rag that’s full of shit and lies.
I had a look at their site. It’s amazing how they are basically a wing of the Labour Party. Every British VIP they cite is a Labour grandee (!)

Also a nominee for ‘sports personality of the year’ is Lia Thomas - I wasn’t aware of them having any sort of personality other than being controversial for competing against women.

I think that is why she had all these recent gigs, booked for promotion, but surprisingly it wasn’t ready

Can you imagine the carnage of mackie attempting to make jam?
Dear heart mouse, do you not remember the greengage jam? That she cooked for hours on end until she was left with a small jar of brown sadness? To be served with cheap wet ham, just like grandad used to have.

If I remember right, didn't she do the bare minimum (natch) for her last book? I'm not really surprised that this one is the same. People still refer back to Tin Can, rather than her newest offering...

That price though! What are they thinking?! Especially with a winter release, when lots of us will be in the middle of a worrying time for affording fuel bills, food costs etc.

I think you're right, I can't remember which appearance it was, but at one of them she was billed as talking about her book GFFBD. That book came out in 2020, why would.she be talking about it at festivals in 2022? Most likely she was due to be talking about the new one, but she hadn't got her shit together.

I get it now.

So you cannot afford firewood, gas, oil or electricity for 20 quid i can teach you all you need to know about how to not use those things and live like the times of yore.

I dunno seems a bit strange.

Prove it.

(For those who missed it I tried "teemill" and "delmonte" as passwords on her teemill site after someone else joked about it. Or at least I said I did. Fascinated to see what evidence Jack brings to court.)

They talked such crap about Julie Bindel that she successfully sued. They agreed on an undisclosed settlement.

So that's a yes.

I was going to mention that. Had forgotten just how brown and terrible looking it was!

I won't be taking one for team and buying her new book. I'm reminded often enough of my foolishness by the fact I already own some of hers. They come in handy when we need a dose of gross though, so there's that.

If I remember rightly, these are not even HER hints and tips. Didn’t she ask her tweeps to send her their ideas?

Nancy Birtwhistle of Bake Off fame has been sharing green and frugal household hints on Instagram for ages such as ivy leaves and conkers for washing clothes. She also has written a couple of books on the subject. I bet there’ll be some, let’s say, similarities…
