At this point I think we should all just be grateful that crippling arthritis now prevents Jack from stitchingand a BAGA 4 patch on her leotard.
Praise beans.

Praise beans.
I too was an early reader, my reception teacher apparently told my mum she thought I’d go to Cambridge or Oxford one day. Needless to say, I (actually went to a ex polytechnic) had the last laugh.
Yes, but it gives her the chance to crow about being a published author who gets advances, hey ho!
Perhaps she has thanked it for its service and is sending it on its way with joy, a la Marie Kondo. Who incidentally also has a new book of household hints on the market...
I have worked with some very smart people that are thick as tit when it comes to common sense and erm real life dealings.
Well, when I and my friends were out at our regular haunts, she’d often be at the bar alone - with her back to the bar, facing the pub, waiting for someone to talk to her. None of us did. If any of us had really paid attention, I suppose the scent of desperation would have been a bit off-putting.
But, you know, we were mainly all busy having fun and catching up with each other after actually working all week, maybe discussing upcoming gigs and things, getting a bit pissed and a bit silly. So I for one didn’t pay her much mind; nobody really did. We’d usually dip in and out of other groups over the course of a night, welcome a wide variety of interesting people to ours, who had something fun to add to our vibe, even if they were oddballs and weirdos we loved them all
(
to anyone lurking who recognises themselves there!). Standard twentysomething activities in a large small town. Genuinely good times. Won’t say much more because 
but we’re pretty much all still friends.If Jack wasn’t such a colossal self-centred liar and grifter I’d feel a bit sorry for her having missed out on it all, despite clearly wanting to be part of the fun. But she is, so I don’t. She didn’t deserve the good memories we all made together … and I think she would have totally harshed our buzz anyway
Edit to add, I’m not saying she didn’t have any friends, just that I don’t remember ever seeing her with any.

I wish I’d kept a list of people she’d threatened to sue along the way. Disappointed in myself now.
I was also a ‘free reader’ in primary at school AND the library. But there was duck all to read as advanced reader as there was no teen fiction. Just kids books and adults book.
Had to wait until I discovered Stephen King in secondary for something to read again.

I'm a bit behind myself dear
but it's a no thank you from me as a massive wang is definitely not all it's cracked up to be. I ended an otherwise extremely satisfying Burger Boy arrangement that had lasted 2 years because his well endowment played havoc with my poor
cervix
I’m not saying this didn’t happen but if it did then it makes absolutely no sense other than to be a performative, pathetic nonsense. Why would you get all the way to the cashier with the booze you desperately want then tell them silently not to serve you? Just put the bottles back on the shelf yourself, you utter goon.
I know that at the casinos here, if you've self-identified or been identified as a problem gambler, there are things that can be put in place to discourage you from gambling. Like a slot machine being shut off if you try to use your loyalty card while playing it. But I don't think I've ever heard of an "I'm an alcoholic please don't serve me" self-notification. I think most retailers expect their cashiers to ring the goods through whatever they are, as long as the customer can pay for them.
Exactly this. Is she thinking of other people's experiences (again) of going into shops where they'd previously bought alcohol and handed over cards basically saying don't serve me alcohol again. Not when they get to the counter with a basket of bottles
Everything she does is for attention.
If people dont witness it in her mind then it never happened.

She says that her moves have historically been ghastly processes.
I feel that this may not be ~entirely~ true.
Didn’t she move into the crappy bungalow with Louisa? Surely that would have been a really lovely time? What about the move into the executive flat? Or the move into the less damp crappy bungalow?
Like the TCC advance and the 14 seater dining table, there are screenshots that would provide vital evidence here to show that she is, cough, lying, but I am watching shite in bed and cba to look.

Well Frauen and Herren, it's Friday night. The pro bono Jewish lawyer is now officially on the sabbath with his crack team of mythical paralegals, and Essex Police z list celebrity twitter squad are BUSY arresting drunks on the periphery of the TOWIE set. No doubt old Jack is due a bit of a 
chaos, but without a table to serve off, what's a conwoman to do? 
Do we think there's a big mad one incoming tonight?

I just have so many suggestions for this guy, that I need to refrain from.
ETA: but by all means, put that child off cooking for life.I’d also like to add, why would someone who has spent the last decade in abject poverty have a passport and take it out with them to the shops?
I mean it feels weird that her son didn’t even get a break away with her during the summer and yet she has a passport which means she could have whisked him away on a break and instead she’s taking it to the Asda.
It's the most stupid thing I have ever heard. If I were a relapsing alcoholic I would simply not show the cashier a bit of paper telling them not to serve me and go home with my booze. I am not an expert on addiction but I have noticed that addicts seem strongly motivated to obtain their substance of choice and are good at coming up with ways to do so. Even a moron like Jack could outwit a piece of paper she'd written on herself.
reaction for this And on that note I would like to be played in the Netflix by Victoria Principal from her Pam Ewing days as someone with very poor eyesight once told me I looked like her in my many years ago youth x
EXACTLY.
