I don't know, if someone is now admitting publicly that Jack refunded her, everyone that wants one now has the grounds to ask for one and if Jack doesn't refund they have evidence that Jack has refunded in the past. Iyswim
Kind of hope it is a sock/puppet squig, something poetic in her being hoisted by her own pumbly petard

I had a thought tonight while I was soaking in the bath- if she wants to be left alone why doesn't she just lock her haunted bird account? She already locks the replies and doesn't interact with anybody outside of her crappy comments club (if she can help it as it just invites a swarm of replies from the usual suspects- it's usually the snarky quote tweets that she does reply to), so those who follow her would see her filthy stinking sheets, boring twaddle about repurposed urinal cake cookies and caravan commode effluent smoothies, so what's the point in keeping it open? She has half a million followers (dropping like a stone though. Lols).
Unless of course she bleeping loves the attention here and elsewhere that it generates.

Really, really *really* makes you think.

They teach you to type by covering the letters 🙄
Flashbacks to Yr 8, 1993, being taught touch typing (on an actual typewriter) by a teacher who'd thwack the desk with a ruler if you looked at your keyboard!

Back on topic. I hope court squig has put their paperwork in.

Miserable po-faced wanker. I can just see the sort of person who complains about someone giving crème eggs to the food bank.
Bet they have #bekind somewhere in their profile too.

I had an arthritis flare today. You know what I did? Got out of my bed at 6:30am, dug my car out of the snow and went to work. Stop linking disability with being a feckless workshy wastrel.
Yes. I am currently in considerable pain, unable to take time out of life to 'recover' and not inclined to be sympathetic towards Jack's nonsense.

I think that the reporter should be tagged in this exchange so he can see Jack's madster lies first hand 🤔💩🥄
And for him to see her trying to throw him under the bus, yet again, for the tewwible twoubles she's getting for the revelations in the article.

Came for a laugh after a rough trauma therapy session, see Jack pretending to have CPTSD. Ffs, do something funny.

But while she's spent the last 10 days frantically doggy-paddling in her own effluent, he's moved on to the next job and probably barely gave her another thought.

The reporter is tagged into her replies so if he isn't bored to the point of being comatose then he'll see what she is saying. This added to the utter bull about the coins/bath must be giving him pause for thought. Might make quite an interesting talk at that Uni after all re: ethics and trustworthiness of the people you are interviewing. She's gone from defending him about the pub to throwing him under the bus, train and tram!

Totally agree, but that song was written many years ago when he had more of a grip on reality
Billy's grip on reality left him years ago.

He is still living off of New England, but that was more than 40 years ago. He is like the world's worst tribute act.

I’ve said it before but she’s talking tit about her addiction.
If she had been drinking a bottle and a half of spirits a day for any considerable time she wouldn’t have been able to just quietly check herself into rehab. She would have needed to be admitted to a specialist ward in hospital (where they often slap a DOLS on people to stop them from absconding) where she would be treated for alcohol withdrawal and monitored carefully to make sure she didn’t actually die. It’s a brutal process. And then they would release her into a rehab facility if she was able to find a place, either that or day treatment.
i know this because a friend of my Harold started the hospital phase of this recently but caught covid so had to be discharged again and is now waiting for another bed to become available. I also follow someone on Insta who recently went through it and some of the things he posted during his time in hospital were really upsetting (saying he’d been kidnapped and was being held hostage etc). His partner had to take over his account to reassure everyone that he was merely hallucinating due to withdrawal. This is why that particular fantasy boiled my pumble so much. Alcoholism isn’t some cosy little club you join up to to make yourself sound more interesting.

So did guardian reporter ignore her request - is she labelling him as irresponsible? Or will his two dictaphones show she never said that? 🤔

But she quite clearly was and is OK after saying she took 40 tramadol a day. Not ONE day, but every day.
She is in a fix now in that she can't say she was lying/exaggerating. I can actually clearly imagine her laugh honking to Simon H 'I was on 40 tramadol a day mate' when she meant 4 because she has to lie and show off about everything.
In a way I agree with her that the Guardian shouldn't have mentioned amounts (if she actually said she didn't want specifics stated. I doubt it tbh) in the same way amounts of alcohol is dangerous, as the amount doesn't always indicate the problem and addiction.
People sadly could seriously harm themselves through reading that. Double, triple their doses because Jack did it and was fine and dandy.

If I reeled off my list of ailments (particularly the current ones - I’m unwell with TWO different bleeping infections because my life as a disabled lone parent ain’t already hard enough) you’d think I was a Jack style liar. I was healthy AF (barring the CPTSD/ADHD) until 2 years ago, I never caught any of the bugs my 3 Patient Zero kids bought home. Now I do, and they put me on my arse for weeks.

And what bothers me the most about it is the impact it has on my kids. I do everything I should but have been unwell since early November. That means they’ve had to do more chores than normal (I’ve upped my cleaners hours due to this because besides the basic keep ya self tidy, put your laundry away and come here and learn XYZ life skill, I ain’t happy with them doing so much). It means I can’t take my youngest out at weekends because I’m exhausted from just managing the week (her clubs are just over the road, so I get her to those, but anything else? Nope.)

I still manage to sit in bed with my laptop and do my bleeping work, I still manage to nurture my children, feed them properly by sitting at the table to chop/other prep meals that are either slow cooked or a tray bake, I have friends I can call on for the school run if I’m so unwell I can’t do that, they’ll bring me a food shop, wash the dishes, make us a meal, mock the duck out of me when I’m being all SadSack.

Actual single parents have to have a bomb proof support system, my family are useless, so I built myself my own damn family with my friends. I really hope SB does spend most of his time not with her.

Jack, I’ve said it so many times I’m bored of hearing myself say it. YOU. CANT. SIT. WITH. US. You are continually perpetuating the harmful stereotype that disabled people are lazy, stupid, feckless, unreliable, lie about their conditions (how many of us have been accused of exaggerating and how often?), etc? Just duck off.

Just took a look at the book wholesalers site, and.....there are a *lot* of copies of Grifty Kitchen sitting there.

For comparison, there are 93 copies of Vegan(ish) and 79 copies of Tin Can Cook, both of which were released almost three years ago.

'She had to sell her hands' is also absolute gold and reminds me of Vonny aka Scottish Jack, who once claimed to have lost a hand, which then mysteriously grew back.
Why do I think vonny was involved in the kitten debacle?

Even if the Guardian writer does see all the chaoi (lies), I think ultimately he’s just another neckbeard who rubs his thighs together at the thought of defending poor ickle Jack from the howwid trolls.

If she was damaging her liver to that extent she would have had a yellowish tinge of jaundice. My mum worked on an alcohol ward for years she has seen it all.
