VIBGYOR
VIBGYORI think I found where some of the kickstarter copies of cooking on a bootstrap ended up, there's 32 copies visible.
The one facing us is the retail version RRP £16.99 so call it £543 worth.

I know. Who knew checking your cupboards and writing a list was the revolution we all needed? We could call it something like I dunno.... a shopping list maybe?I have no idea if wishing people a happy Oktoberfest is a thing, but if it is...happy Oktoberfest!
Finally listening to the Radio Scotland interview. If anyone hasn't listened yet, I recommend it. It's hard to explain just how funny the stock take advice is, mostly because she shares it in a tone of voice like she's letting us in on a top industry secret.
It took me a minute, but I got there. hahaVIBGYOR
Hang on, so Oktoberfest starts... before October? What sort of alcohol based chaos is this?They’re for Oktoberfest! Which according to wiki..
is the world's largest Volksfest, featuring a beer festival and a travelling carnival. It is held annually in Munich, Bavaria, Germany.
…and it started more than a week ago. I love how bonkers Tattle is sometimes.

She once said (after searching for her name on twitter and finding a dissenting squig saying ‘why is it all so soft?’) that it’s because SB has issues with texture.Imagine if you could do a photo time lapse of the food getting sloppier...! Mind you, she’s quite capable of making soft things rather solid - fried tinned fish, defrosted cod cooked for 1hr, the choc and tinned pear cake brick etc
I think that is what will happen.... possibly with Piers Morgan or Rob RinderImagine if she came back super professional and started sharing some VBI numbers? Tbf she could entirely fabricate it all and ppl would lap it up.
Or imagine if we got some sort of Hailey Beibermy truth confessional video podcast with James O’Brien.
The origins are explained in link below, but it always ends on the first Sunday in October. As it runs for two weeks, it always starts in September. As for why, it's what Viv would have wanted.Hang on, so Oktoberfest starts... before October? What sort of alcohol based chaos is this?
I never understood why she decided to name her imaginary index the “Vimes Boots Index”, as the concept of the cost of durability is completely different from the idea that basic/budget foodstuffs show different inflation patterns compared to other food products.Jack: stop trying to make the Vimes Boots Index happen, it's not going to happen. There's an obvious difference between buying boots to last vs buying food
It's been discussed here many times before that it's not just her lack of skills or interest, but she writes about food as if she actively resents it.Babe, same (full of wine). I've not been a chef or professional cook but I am a foodie and have loved cooking, recipe books, magazines etc since I was a teenager and she just cannot cook. There's nothing on her work that shows any inkling of enjoying food, being interested in food, understanding the chemistry and sheer fucking joy of cooking, texture and taste. SHE. CANNOT. COOK. and every day that goes past that a professional chef bigs her up is one too many.
As Matt of the Forearms says, "Terrible"
Babe, same! It’s literally nothing to do with inflation!I never understood why she decided to name her imaginary index the “Vimes Boots Index”, as the concept of the cost of durability is completely different from the idea that basic/budget foodstuffs show different inflation patterns compared to other food products.
No doubt it made sense to Jack at some point during a 4am snowstorm.
Mark Lewis is a solicitor (hence his reprimand came from the SRA). Certainly, he was acting as Jack’s solicitor.Indeed, sorry, common or garden barrister!
And it should be a KC now as well..
I thought she arranged her cook books by region? Or was that another lieAll these people wondering where their copy ended up - right there on Jack's shelf.
Also, I loathe colour ordered bookshelves. Looks pretty, but it's just fucked from every other point of view. My otherwise reasonably normal sister does it, and was horrified to learn that about her.
It's the worst. (I mean, it's not really, but her unopened books and spaffing about sleeping in a library gets my goatAll these people wondering where their copy ended up - right there on Jack's shelf.

And we know how well *that* worked out.I thought she arranged her cook books by region? Or was that another lie
It's simply a case of latching onto the Pratchett excerpt floating around on sm cos she thinks it makes her look like she read a book once.I never understood why she decided to name her imaginary index the “Vimes Boots Index”, as the concept of the cost of durability is completely different from the idea that basic/budget foodstuffs show different inflation patterns compared to other food products.
