Some poor sod in a TINY flat in Southend is in for a treat today. A parcel of mung beans, tinned peaches, hessian sacking and gold glitter. Mmm.

Tbf I wouldn't be surprised if SB is officially a LITERAL VULNERABLE CHILD due to his mother's antics.

I just hope we're correct and he only has to deal with her once a week at most.

It will miraculously delivered to her current bungalow because the delivery driver saw her name and thought, “that one don’t live ‘ere, that one’s raaaaand the corner” and somehow, amazingly, save Monroe Christmas.

Some poor sod in a TINY beautiful 1 bed (but actually 2/3 bed if you utilised the space correctly) garden flat in Southend is in for a treat today. A parcel of mung beans, tinned peaches, hessian sacking and gold glitter. Bigham’s ready meals, free range turkey crown, luxury mince pies, nettle cheese, sparkly J2O, pre-prepared mash, parmentier potatoes, and Greek mezze will be winging its way to them soon. Mmm
FIFY.

I'm deducing that the reason she couldn't get her delivery changed is that the lost flat is far enough away from the crappy bungalow that it would be on a completely different delivery round.

And from the way she's talking about it, she's the subject of that Guardian interview, she's not writing it herself, so she won't get paid for it, it'll be a promotional thing for Grifty Kitchen.

So she was planning to be moved by now but her tenancy isn't up until February. She also confirmed she has the date on her calendar to put in her notice.

Does that mean Jack was going to pay for two places at the same time? For several months??? THAT is privilege.

Have always rented. The most overlap I've ever had is a few days - to clean the new place before moving stuff in and to clean the old place after everything is moved (to make sure I got the deposit back). I'd see anything more as a huge waste of money. I couldn't afford to anyway!

How can she afford all that? Really makes you think 🤔

In the tweeting chaos, I completely forgot about that.

So we have the article fun on the 2nd and then the book fun on the 5th. Going into bookshops and secretly looking at the horror that is Grifty Kitchen. Such fun awaits the New Year.

Desperate to know what two forms of I.D she’s bringing! Can’t be a driving license. A passport obvs (can’t get to Dordrecht without one!) Maybe a signed advanced copy of Grifty Kitchen? … no that won’t work, her School Run Mum in a Land Rover hair doesn’t align with Porny Blindmen look of late. Who will end up with the bollock sausages and tins of peaches? Only one way to solve this…. FIIIIIIIIGHTTTTT!!!!!!!
She'll just need to roll her sleeves up, they'll recognise her 💪

I hate this time of year (not just Christmas, but the dark and crappy weather) probably about as much as I hate the Guardian but I have to admit after her smug poll tweet and her vile VULNERABLE tweet, I am very much looking forward to the canal rejoicing in a “several page interview and cover photo” pdf. Version II.
This is in place of the Guardian Q&A which was pulled due to unforeseen circumstances Jack bricking it about being asked challenging questions.

How can she possibly one-up diva.pdf with its alcoholic relapse and suicide-baiting tales of woe?

Personally, I'm crossing my fingers for Evil trolls forced me back on the game.

I reckon she's attempting to go viral with a quirky online delivery tale.

I've seen at least one tweet from the insufferable Hadley Freeman who allegedly got 3 bottles of champagne delivered as that's what she had put in as a holding order to get the slot, and forgot to change it.

How the other half live.
I used to be part of a shopping forum, and sad to say that was really common, that and bottles of vodka
Expensive stuff so you could bang a few of them in, reserve your slot and then amend when the new offers came out

Was at my dear nan's care home yesterday and sorted all the Take A Break, That's Life, Woman's Weekly etc in the lounge area. Jesus christ, even their bull coverlines are no match for Jack Monroe's tall tales 🤣

She should just give up grifting and become a salaried buller for one of those mags!

We got a delivery of 2 bottles of whisky once for exactly that reason.

With the old Tesco online shop, you can change up to midnight the night before. Must be different with Waitrose.
I once went to the pub ‘just for one’ the day my food shop was due to be delivered. Accidentally got a bit pissed and decided to stay longer. Called up the supermarket and explained that circumstances had changed and I wouldn’t be home to accept the delivery. They cancelled it and didn’t charge me. It was at most a couple of hours beforehand. I call bull. (Ps not my finest hour, I know, but 🍷 = chaos now and again).

I couldn't follow the chaos properly last night due to my still DEAD broadband, send efficient openreachos 😑. Based on her waffling, I'm not sure who needs to take the floor first, Jimmy or Bing?❄🤔



So no doubt she's going to use this Guardian piece to complain about trolls/abuse/smear campaigns again? Likely claim death and r*pe threats, yet again? Breakdowns aplenty, and a nice addition of SB the human shield and his breadcrumbed additional needs (so private 🙄). It's all getting rather tired as a response, isn't it? bleeping groundhog day.

Though it’s been a wild ride over the past couple of years I didn’t expect it all to start unraveling this quickly!

She's trending on the hellsite so there appears to be a load of fawning mats on there patting her head and saying what a good little girl she is. Turning my stomach this morning. I'm going back to bed

That was quite a ride, thanks Jack. There's so much bull spewing from her it's hard to pick any one thing to talk about...thankful for the canal who have discussed everything
