The liar, the grift and the cotswold. No idea why that phrase popped into my head during my relaxing bath but I needed to get it out somewhere so here you go fraus

I wonder how long after Jack moved in with Allegra she realised she couldn’t cook.

Did she really go to rehab when she split with her? I feel like I’ve missed this. This must be when SB really moves in with dad then.

Creators have (or at least had, it may have changed) the ability to choose when their patrons get charged.

In practice though I'm fairly certain nearly all bill at the start of the month.
(edit: and yes, in that scenario you are billed upon sign up, even if it is the last day of the month)
A podcaster my OH likes, points this out at the end of every month when advertising their podcast suggesting potential subscribers wait a few days

I'm not sure her publisher having a word would have this lasting effect. She seems completely disinterested in her writing. She misses deadlines, doesn't bring manuscripts to meetings, doesn't answer the phone to her agent/publisher. I wouldn't be surprised if now she's finally delivered her most recent book, if they parted ways.

I reckon big Dave had a word. She's had three family related chaoses (chaosi?) this year; jubilee gun chaos, Marxist Leninist landlord chaos and roast potatoes chaos. I think he finally had enough and threatened some sort of repercussions (inheritance or property related maybe?) if she didn't stop the twitter bs.

I've just had a look at twitter. It's DIRE 🤭. I'm not sure 'What is your favourite chocolate bar from the 80's' is going to cut it.

I think so too. It would get old as duck very quickly your adult partner expecting you to indulge them like Spoiled Bastard from Viz.

I would LOVE to have a good old chat with Rosamund Urwin (she’s the one who also wrote the great “not my circus not my monkeys” article too). Pretty sure she has plenty of “thoughts” on Ol Bullshitter
Her later article for anyone who missed it. SHADE!!!
Dear Valio,
Thanks for these. Jack and Leggy make me cringe as much as Matt Goss...

Is this article the very origin of Chef's Kiss? 👨‍🍳💋

I am so happy to finally understand, it feels like the heady days of finding the Trifle Defender all over again 🍾

I appreciate the further comments on "bit gauche, darling" and as usual the thoughtful remarks and varying views have helped me dig a little deeper. The comments about Allegra potentially being absolutely mortified by the unsuitable comment and being so posh that this was simply her version of the honking shriek of excited embarrassment I would have produced ( or not, as it doesn't seem necessarily grossly inappropriate to me) resonated with me. As well as the class dynamic, I now see it also butts up against my feeling that life runs on a set of rules I am unaware of, but expected to abide by and I struggle with this.

I do feel sorry for Jack on the basis of this small clip but agree with those who feel this relationship may have seen strong and difficult personalities on either side.

‘West London Lesbian’ is a bio description I must’ve missed.

Oh no wait-she’s just as egotistical and mad as her beloved.

Yes Allegra-the crushing responsibility of proving nothing to nobody while disparaging the women who fought for your right to exist whilst also fighting for a safer world in general.

Firstly-haha! And yet…Jack-you genuinely do not know how to cook. Remember your own salt anecdote from 40 seconds ago?

Jack admits to a serious offence. She is carrying a weapon with intent.

Jack lies a lot about how she felt touching Fass’s I’m sure very smooth chest.

Ahhhh watching gogglebox with my sisters 🔺and THAT MAN’S £1 show popped up. One sister said ‘isn’t this encroaching on that Jack Monroe person’s thing? Weird, I’ve not seen anything from her for ages’ (sister is lefty as they come but never been on bird app).

Reader. I set her straight immediately on grifting, Tory undertones and frankly stomach churning, offensive recipes. Small victory, but those small facts were enough for her to agree that she sounds like a total grifter. ‘Good thing she’s fading into obscurity then’ were her words.

I sipped my beer and smiled. No further discussion needed.

Might write a poem about it later xx

Brilliant idea plus I picked up these food fraud candidates from the recent discussion, the ones where an enterprising frau realised what she was passing off as her own. Just need to find the pics:

Salmon Pie

Waitrose Parmentier Potatoes

Soup

Greek mezze, dolmades
Co-op summer picnic range… usually 3 for 2

Aunt Bessie's yourshire puddings

Walkers shortbread
Jack's orange peel sugar cookies versus Waitrose amaretti, in May, versus Jack's orange peel sugar cookies in July. 🤷‍♀️

Erm what!! What a terrible little fraud she is! Her actual cookies are DIRE. Why oh why always orange peel sugar or something really specialist when she doesn’t even heat a pan. She’s so pretentious. Just zest a bit of orange into the cookie mix ffs.
🚨 Weird double post 🚨
I wonder with Leggy how much Jack’s finances had to do with the imbalance. A friend of mine met a guy and they started dating and it was a good while -maybe 8 months-before she found out he was a millionaire property developer. He then found out she was a financial nightmare who owned her own house but very little else. They were together a few years before he started trying to make her do investments and think about pensions etc because he was ‘worried about her finances.’ My friend was really shocked because I think she thought if he was thinking long term then she’d be ‘well I married a millionaire so I’m rich too now’ and his point of view was more like ‘I need you to be financially stable yourself because that’s important to me.’
She wanted looking after and I think Jack is the same. I don’t like Leggy but I bet she’s got her tit together and is a doer. The opposite of Jack in so many ways. 😂

I’m sure it’s been discussed before but newspaper sanitary towels? About as real as Toothpaste For Dinner Man. Talk about a recipe for a chaffed chuff.

Honestly, she’s just exhausting.

Hmm. You’ve never done any of things Jack you disgusting little liar. Time for bed or I’ll be driving to Sarfend through the night to picket the crappy bungalow or tie myself to the railings of the Sarfend Echo until they reveal the truth about this shocking little con artist.

ETA The juxtaposition of those two posts-one £10 jug - part of what we know to be a large assortment of jugs, over a post talking about drinking baby formula, licking stock cubes and using newspaper sanitary towels. Absolutely ludicrous.
Those poverty themes just made me think- Has she just started the first season of Call the Midwife?

As kids- before 'snacks' were invented, (in our household, somewhere around the late 80's/ early 90's) we used to eat oxo cubes on the regular as 'snacks'. I once ate a curry one thinking it was chicken (both goldish-coloured). That taught me. The other 'snacks' we had were 'raisins in an egg cup', and dry spaghetti. One of my sons still eats this on the sly for 'fun'. We were in no way starving kids- there were just not special foods purchased for 'between meals' at that point. So we used to raid the cupboards for whatever WAS there. Once my mum started buying chocolate biscuits- penguins- usually, we went crazy for them.

These are my favourite types of Jack lies because they’re just so ridiculous that only an absolute moron with gullible tattooed on their forehead would even read that tit without thinking ‘Oh come ON’.
It’s beyond embarrassing. Even little kids would blush at such ridiculous stories but this is a grown woman doing so. It’s not even remotely believable yet she thinks it’ll fly (& even worse, how many morons actually like this balderdash).
