Thanks! The 4 minutes of rambling before the singing is quite something.
nonononono my own anxiety couldn’t take the preamble on the other one and now I’m too nosey not to try this one too

"a quick use up dinner". Ah yes, to use up all the aubergines and jarred artichokes I have knocking around. Wasn't it capers she was mocking JO for using as they were too FANCY for people to have in their cupboards?

Bellend 🙄

She sold her piano when she was poor, of course. Except on insta I read that the landlord left a piano in the crappy bungalow because it was too big to move 🧐

Never did I thought I'd say food could do with a rinse but my goodness that looks dry, I'm imagining the cream cracker challenge (anyone else do that at school?!)

Listening just now to Out to Lunch with Jay Rayner, and he and Grayson Perry (who I love!) talk about class. It’s a great podcast, even without the class stuff
I used to like Jay Rayner until his ‘dear heart’ comment to JM but I absolutely love Grayson , he’s wonderful! I hope he’s not a Twitter pal of the world’s worst poverty wannabe.

Yeah I mean it screams 'poverty' when someone moves a piano into a ~crappy rented flat~ doesn't it?!

I quite fancy jay rayner in a ‘would feel dirty afterwards’ way, then I was watching an old master chef the other day and he says to this pretty girl after tasting her food ‘what are you doing later?’ 🤢

I could tell you about being poor
I could tell you about loathing myself
I could tell you about all the missed opportunities I’ve had.
Oh wait I just have!

ugh she makes my skin crawl the way she over dramatises everything and the poor me narrative. I haven’t even made it to the singing part yet.

If by the smallest of small chances Jack manages to get the Supervet to see kitten and treat her, and it gets on TV, is the treatment free? Does the TV company cover it? (I've no idea).
I think she is 100% hoping the fee would be covered by the production company, hence the bumlicking to Noel

one thing I noticed when I went to uni (in Scotland), is that when first meeting kids who came from boarding schools, they would always quickly ask you 'which school did you go to?'. When it first happened I found it a really odd question to ask, but really it was to find out if you were 'one of them' but probably also to find out where your pecking order would be
Omg yes! This!

I had an interview at Oxford University (didnt get in, wasn't prepared for the pressure, glad I didn't). When we first got there they put on a mixer for interviewees - the first thing I was asked was what school I went to.

"I don't think you'll know it..."

it’s almost scripted isn’t it? Self conscious to the point of fake

All I can say right now is that poor kitty is being used as a prop. :cry: That latest picture is like trying to be Pride Rock from Lion King.

That traybake tortilla thing looks a bit dry to me, is it a savoury cake??

Jack lurches from the watery as duck horse spunk lasagne to a tortilla drier than the Gobi desert , there’s no middle ( I mean decent cooking) ground with r’Jack.
