It was incredible wasn’t it? The whole storyline was fantastically acted and it was so chilling hearing the build up of insidious abuse that led to that fateful night with the tuna pasta bake. Although I do remember shouting, ‘Go on Helen!’ when she finally found the courage to retaliate after months of Rob’s abuse.
Yet another of her 5-minute wonders.
That was my thought as well. The poor little thing looks so tiny and weak - it’s certainly not thriving, like a kitten should be at that age.
I seen it mention on here before, but I also think it may have some sort of problem with its eyes. They don't look healthy.Yet another of her 5-minute wonders.

I think vegan might have got shelved because I think after living it for a while she must have realised it wasn’t very compatible with her core low-cost group. It’s much cheaper for a family on low income to buy huge bottles of regular cow milk on multi-buy than it is to buy multiple bottles of soy, even if it is supermarket brand - and that’s before you start considering the vegan cheeses, yogurts etc. Her already loyal fans might have struggled with that. Just my opinion, please correct me if you know the price marks better!
Hope today has been better for you
You need to write Jack's next book instead of Jack!
I completely agree BB; I never even thought what class I was until we started talking about it here.I’ve been thinking about class reading all your replies, maybe it’s a Scottish thing but it certainly doesn’t seem to be as obvious up here? Sure someone will correct me. I am a very strange mix, my Dad grew up WC in a Council house but had a good job. My Mum grew up MC by virtue of her Dad owning a shop and they lived in a nice suburb. Parents married and bought a house in nice MC area.
Terrible separation due to addiction and DV and Mum left and had to rent. So we lived in a rented property that was freezing, sleeping in clothes and me staying wherever I could so my Mum could work full time to keep our heads above water. Sorry all sounds a bit JM, I know! Back in those days no money was required to be paid by Dad (still holding down good job) so he didn’t.
Over the years Mum was promoted again and again and became an Area Director in her field. I’ve been so lucky to have such a strong female role model. I reckon I’m likely MC but no Uni for me as Mum couldn’t afford it, and no Land Rover as we couldn’t afford a car! My lovely Grandpa did take me to dance lessons though
Sorry for the essay but that is why I get annoyed at JM, just get on with it. My Mum did, back in the day when there was no financial or care support. She worked hard and made really nice food from not much, always inspired by the books she loved Elizabeth David etc
How do I do a kitten warning thing?
Exactly this. All she needed to do was to shut the duck up, and focus on making easy, cheap meals. It doesn’t matter that she’s middle class, makes decent money, had a very rich partner etc. None of it matters, no one would care, it only matters because she keeps lying about it all! Good £1 recipes speak for themselves. She had potential fame handed to her on a platter via her connections, and ruined it by burning bridges, constantly lying, complaining and going over the top.
Plus she made that tweet which was a sly dig at JO. I'm not sure about Louisa sometimes. However she is clearly not flaky nor needs an online platform to validate herself. I think she is a sounder character than Jack.
The three little dots next to the smiley face, select spoiler, title it ‘kitten’ for example then the cursor will be in between some brackets and say what you’d like to.
Bollocks to it, @Silver Linings. Go to bed, relax and don't think about her for a bit. I certainly haven't been.
I think our mistake is either a. thinking the 'later' means 'later today', forgetting the fact that the crazy concept of ~time~ is alien to Jack or b. taking her at her word about anything at all (which is to say, the promised 'update' is already forgotten). Or a mixture of the two.
Oh that sounds tricky. Hope you can get some kind of system sorted.
Have you called the vet, lovely? They may be able to go over some basics with you on the phone to set your mind to rest. Lots of love to you, I know it can be so dreadful when you’re not sure.
My vet is reopening on Monday, with appropriate COVID measures, so I'm going to make an appointment for next week. I'd been hoping and hoping my boy would suddenly stop his strange behaviour (and every second walk or so, he's fine, which lulls me into a false sense of security, only for him to start up again). I honestly don't know if the vet will be much use, I think it's a psychological thing, but I'm going to get him physically checked out nonetheless. Thank you, though, and you're absolutely right, I need to make sure
ETA - But the thing is, I reckon she *has* actually been really BUSY over this particular period (or she *should* have been, if she'd taken her prep seriously). She's has more TV / presenting work than ever before, with DKL and the insta lives, it was really her time to shine. But she blew it.
