I thoight it might be this one but I was wrong. At first glance I can’t find it. Maybe Marmite or Marmalade will spot the odd one out.

Maybe it’s the Simon Cowell thing There are a few people I’ve wondered why he sticks with (Sinitta, Amanda Holden, Cheryl Cole - albeit I saw on the Celeb Gossip the reason why that might be...) so maybe because she’s not a fan of DW, she thinks even though he’s the worst person in the world, SC will stick with him and therefore keep him relevantI have never seen David Walliams as 'untouchable'. I'm curious as to why she thinks he is.
Hmmm I'd like to think it'd take more than tomato sauce with a blob of marmalade in to get me into bed but we all have different standards I suppose...Wonder if this was before or after her only vegan in the world crusade.
Looks very bog standard to me.
The thing about her twitter rants is. In a few days people won’t care about DW and his books. Even the most outraged of the outraged will move on to something else.
Would she like to be on the receiving end of what she dishes out to people? Of course not. As for her Monrowflake. Grow up.
Yes! Soooo naughty, which really is a great way to encourage most kids to readI am throwing my hat into the wildly frizzy tightly curled hair, funny name, olive skin but firmly Caucasian ring. Will await my correction from JM in due course.
On the subject of DW content, anybody remember going back to read the worst bit you could find in a book when you were little? Like if it mentioned poo or someone was called a super naughty name?! And absolutely dying laughing as it was so naughty but you were ‘doing your reading’? It was almost an initiation into that secret world reading affords, a private joke between you and the author.
Hey @IGisntreal The thread title was: Silver Linings Deserves A Medal (by @Harrybosch ) but turns out it’s not allowed as it can be perceived as cliquey to new readers.@Keegan I'm the same regarding hoarding food, as I too didn't have much of it growing up.
@Pocahontas what was the thread title? Just out of curiosity
Prima facie means at face value, which to me doesn't make sense in this tweet? (please do correct me if I'm wrong)
I hope Jack calms down a bit, looking after the child, working, moving and keeping up here is nigh impossible
So I shouldn't put any in the sauce I'm making for tea, in case any random men come barging past the knee licking dog to seduce me?Hmmm I'd like to think it'd take more than tomato sauce with a blob of marmalade in to get me into bed but we all have different standards I suppose...
Depends who’s serving though right? If this cabal/coven (what are we calling ourselves these days?) is anything to go, Ian Hislop or Tom Cruise as Maverick serving up = get into bed.Hmmm I'd like to think it'd take more than tomato sauce with a blob of marmalade in to get me into bed but we all have different standards I suppose...
Sure! I mean I love reading non fiction and learning through books still, but what hooked me on reading was that entertainment? Moving from Roald Dahl to Spike Milligan as a young adult, that mischievous humour bound up in other things... it teaches you nuance, subtlety, context. I’m appalled at her ignorance (again). She might have failed grammar school but it looks sadly like she’s bitter about anyone else taking joy in more scholarly pursuits. It’s a disgrace.Yes! Soooo naughty, which really is a great way to encourage most kids to read
I mean, the oldest recorded joke is a fart joke. We are fundamentally childish and gross at heart, and that's the appeal of those books to kids. The fun police never come up with any real solutions that actually do appeal to kids, they just whack the ban hammer out
That reminds me of a comment I read yesterday somewhere I thought was funny. Someone said 'well I've got a Jack Monroe book and some of the recipes are lovely' to which another person replied 'well you obviously haven't been following them correctly'.I am still HOOTING over the fact she will not hold her hands up and say “I got it wrong over Mrs Tutelage”
She’s doing herself absolutely no favours by carrying this on. She’d be better off admitting she made a mistake there, pressing that she doesn’t like certain aspects of the stories and that she’d implore parents to check they are happy with the literature their children and reading.
She then needs to get a friend (maybe the one who reads here, hello ) to change her social media passwords for her so she can have a real break of a few weeks, not just a few hours.
If she does both of those, she might just about save her career. (For now at least)
Also, someone is about to get blocked...
The husband had incredibly odd parents, who thought mum and dad were common. They got to being about 10 or so, and were given the choice of continuing to call them mummy and daddy, or by their first names. Even now, two of his sisters do the same with their now grown up kids. It's weird.Sounds like her ex bought some of the books and her pal bought another.
This is the same lassie who came stomping on here demanding that no one talk about her child.
I also think it’s a bit odd that she still refers to him as SB. He’s ten.
I also read an article where she says that he sometimes calls her Jack and sometimes calls her Mumma Jack. I’ve never called my mum anything other than mum. Calling her by her first name would just be all kinds of odd.
Green with envy perhaps use this to make yourself better. He appeals to his readers, ok his language might be colourful and as much as you don't like it, it appeals to them. Watch any comedy today and it's full of colourful language.View attachment 175462Why oh why did I tempt fate?!
I saw that comment too and laughed up a lungThat reminds me of a comment I read yesterday somewhere I thought was funny. Someone said 'well I've got a Jack Monroe book and some of the recipes are lovely' to which another person replied 'well you obviously haven't been following them correctly'.
And when she was trans he apparently called her MamaPapa - will try and find article but can’t remember where I read thisSounds like her ex bought some of the books and her pal bought another.
