That, what I can only assume is bread and butter pudding, looks like she's spatchcocked a baby sloth.
I just šŸ¦‰ šŸ¾ at that while my other half is having his 1-1 and Iā€™m not really supposed to be here. I canā€™t even leave the room to howl and claw because his boss will see Iā€™m still in my pyjamas šŸ«£

I think her mother has more influence on the family than Jack lets on. The religion thing, for a start... Grandad H had a Baptist funeral service, as an example - so will have been baptised as an adult at E's church.
Really? Thanks I didn't know that.

I can't seem to reconcile his attitude to her obvious by Jack's stories of how he laughingly encouraged her being abusive and sweary to her mother and her having enough influence to make him change his religion. But like everything about her, it doesn't make sense.

A frau mentioned fostering - I'm surprised she's not inserted herself into those discussions - kids leaving care (foster/state) can be left starting out with nothing - so a guide for starting a kitchen from scratch could've been useful. She could've taken after Dave and advocated for them to receive additional support/benefits (oh wait afaik Dave on advocated for the foster carers to get extra cash).
You'd think that would be up in her niche (oh err) as she'd have loads of misery stories to appropriate!
Sheā€™s not interested in anyone else. Jack Monroeā€™s specialist subject is Jack Monroe.

This is the thing - how would SS even know anything unless it's reported? Frankly if you're necking two packets of sleeping tablets (well done on getting more than 5 of those by the way) and paracetamol and vodka of an evening perhaps they should have been involved!!
She also claims to have been hospitalised following an attempt on her life but weirdly the hospital didn't enquire into her living circumstances and raised no concern about a child being at home with a parent in such deep mental distress. But apparently kids are getting snatched into care right, left and centre because their mother ran out of Weetabix. All of her lies are bleeping nonsense and if she didn't link them to such distressing subjects she'd have been called out years ago.

I for one am waiting with bated breath for Jack and SB's winter Scottish camping adventure. I wonder when it'll start.
My nipples just froze and fell to the floor like pebbles even thinking about that. I went camping on Skye šŸ‰ several summers ago and it was bloody freezing at night. Youā€™d have to be a deranged fantasist to imagineā€¦ oh, right.

I liked your post even though can you imagine working a ward alongside her as an HCA?! Never mind being a patient on the ward.

Southend Hospital is pretty dire, and thereā€™s absolutely no need to add a Jack Monroe to its very long list of problems.
She could go to a care home. Only joking !!!!ā€™

Yikes. There's even a neckbeard squig offering to reimburse people scammed by Jack, at the same time as getting ratty with them for being upset at being scammed. It really is a cult! Everyone but Jack is to blame for Jack's actions. These men are the type that go to lap dancing clubs and think the dancers fancy them.
I'd give necky bollocks a swift boot in the dick.
Like attracts like and she doesn't half attract her mirror image.

The trouble with "wild camping" is that if you find a decent spot, there's the possibility that it's also the favourite spot of hundreds of other people.

Maybe not so much in winter tho...

So if you take the other bits out for the moment and just look at that amount of paracetamol, 16g worth is around the toxic dose for a person weighing 12.5 st. I have no idea of Jack's weight but I presume she is far lighter than that.

It takes surprisingly little paracetamol to seriously affect someone's liver, and how serious it is won't usually become apparent until a day or so later. It's important to seek medical help if someone has taken too much, even though they may seem well, as the effects creep up gradually šŸ™.
I was going to circle back to that - all the pills AND a bottle of vodka and she was posting on FB the day after? No A&E (minimum, paracetamol can kill you), nothing? I call BS again.

Oh God, I'm listening to her Greenbelt thing, she's so utterly appalling. She's talked about nothing but herself so far. Why is she hamming up her 'accent'? The quavering shitting dog - I get she's nervous but I think this is mostly because she's so un-prepared. Holy f**k Grenfell! 'Me me me' again.

Fostering section. She is SUCH a trauma and grief tourist. Again, it's all 'I'.

HOW DO PEOPLE FALL FOR THIS?! It's just confected, triggering misery making her out to be the saddest wretch to have ever existed. This is literally the only story she has ever been capable of telling and she descends into a deeper circle of hell (i.e. LIES) with each re-telling of it. She has no desire whatsoever to try to make things better for others; all she wants is for The Poverty (died aged 18 months, RIP, if it ever existed) story to be her meal ticket for the rest of her life. I'm 20 minutes in now and this has been NOTHING but a woe-is-me stream of consciousness of crap!

Listening to the greenbelt thing...I'm so angry with her. Using "scared of social services" as an excuse not to meet her son's basic needs by asking her parents for help...grrrrrr.

And the lie about the family restaurant she worked in, not being her family's, you can almost hear her realise she made a mistake in mentioning it.
It would be a fun exercise to get a transcript of that speech, and go through it highlighting all the lies we spot.

What kind of household has stray pots of cream lying around?
It makes it so obvious that she lives alone.

I do too, and sometimes struggle not to waste food. I try to buy veg loose, I portion packaged meat up, divide loaves of bread, batch cook, and have friends over for dinner often... and I still waste more than I'd like.

Last time I bought cream, I used it for 3 desserts over the course of two weeks but about a quarter of the bottle still went to waste.

Jack seems to have much much more waste than I do - I reckon that either she doesn't actually cook very often, or she does a lot of impulse buying. Possibly both.

Whenever we have cream in the house it eventually becomes part of the ā€œguess what I used to beā€ game when we clean the fridge

Ohh I won the thread title! Thanks blue face!

Iā€™m going to guess that since I only have 5 pages to grunk that Jack is still pretending to be offline.

I have up about halfway through when someone sidled up to her in a swimming pool and told her her book saved his life. ("Your book saved my life at uni"...I wonder if she thought he meant she literally saved her life...?!)

At least she seems to recognise her charmed life of titting about writing for the guardian

Once you see it, you can't unsee it and it's literally EVERYWHERE.
