People tend not to want to play Trivial Pursuit or be in a pub quiz team against me Jack. I also stormed a game of Risk once by starting from Australia and marauding through the whole world in a couple of hours. The friends I was playing with were a bit narked on the day (they took Risk seriously and I swanned in and spanked them by pure luck) but we are still strong friends 30 years later. People don't want to play with you because you will scratch them and take the ball away so no-one can play you tedious

On a mega grunk but if she has been playing daily with her delicious chess pal for two years, then what was OH doing when she was playing 2-3 matches a day? OH dumped her less than 12 months ago. Make it make sense guest.

I don't dislike the person I mentioned, I know nothing about them. I was just being witchy about elasticated waists on view in public.

I have trousers with elasticated waists. Well, one pair, barring jogging bottoms. I make sure this fact is hidden when wearing them because I'm a judgemental snob.

Ooh, it's Tuesday tomorrow

I have nothing but elasticated waists as am going for a jegging over a jean on my twilight years x

OMG masterchef is all up in her niche. Cooking delicious food from leftovers and stuff that you’d throw in the bin

 

[People-huv-tae-know]

I wonder how guest feels about being 'social anthrax' these days. I imagine her equally gobby arch enemy (but they have more in common than they realise) has slightly more pals though.

I regret to inform Celerytown residents, comedy fans and Fringe lovers that Jack has bothered the Fringe with her presence many times. PR Vix took up stand up, a Frau saw Jack pissed in a bar being obnoxious to everyone, there are a few Fringe tales.

Do tell dear heart xx

Pits and Perverts: Lesbians & Gay Men Support The Miners (LGSM) 1984/8

Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) is an activist group that formed in solidarity with the striking miners in 1984. Mark Ashton, one of the founders, saw the struggle of the miners as the same faced by gay people fighting for their rights against a government that would not listen. LGSM...

It’s this T-shirt (I love that film)

This Pride, the pride when the miners turned up en masse, was my first.
It was something special because I was scooped up just like 'Bromley' was at his first one.

Is this new Chess Friend the duck buddy "undefinable special person in my life" or whatever balls she was breadcrumbing the other day? The person most of us assumed was Linda?

Is he also the spiritual male friend she was getting up at 6am to scamper across MOD land with? The labourer who was lodging with her for a handful of tweets then never mentioned again? Mr Potato Head/Arcade Fire gig bodyguard? Matt Gloss? Or the oldest friend she was gently tenderly deliciously falling in love with after Old Harold LEFT? Or was that Burger Boy? Are these potential love interests she keeps soft-launching all the same person?

Who bleeping knows, they should all run as fast as they can away from Jack the slop cooking can anyone seen any dead gloves lately? That used to be my favourite thing

Well, Jack has been social anthrax IRL for a long time now, at least for anyone who actually knew her So it’s mainly a question of her online persona+rep converging with her real life personality+rep at last. She’s used to being social anthrax really, it’s just now she can’t go on the internet and pretend she isn’t.

Can we call the new/old friend Chessney Honks, please?

Decided to make a quiche today, who knew Mary Berry was a maven? Simple recipe using only a few ingredients, I used ready made pastry and it was delish.

 

[Whaa?]

I am impressed with how fast and how completely the Superdrug campaign went into reverse.

My feeling is there's word on the grapevine but people ignore it or someone in a position of power (often not having the best of ideas) with an active Twitter overrules them. Then the unfortunate crew have to deal with their poor planning.

I've had that before with directors. When I've explicitly said 'we all found XYZ awful to work with, don't hire' and they do anyway because they're desperate or again they think 'how bad can they be'. Turns out very. Then I will get calls from editor mates working with them going whyyyyyy was XYZ hired. I don't like saying told you so in those situations because my friends are in the tit!

But really it should work like it does with the rest of us, with references etc. Mind you, these terrible people find someone who is somewhat shielded from how they actually are to work with and get a reference from them.

Maddening that people like guest still get the odd bit of work.

Did LJC still have pull at the beeb at the time of DKL?

 

[I'm not actually here]

I'm not a Royalist, but neither is she, so crown it is.

 

[Hollaaa]

The canal immediately picked it up, laughed about it and at some point weeks later Jack grunked. Then took to including the info that her lawyer is Jewish in future tweets, but he’d be on it as soon as Shabbat is over. Which was aimed at us, but made duck all sense to the people on the hellsite

And when you consider she did a tv presenting course in 2018 paid for by crowdfunding BOOP BOOP

This twists my melon every time.
She says: "Am funding the pilot myself as I'm not a pisstaker"
In the literal next sentence: please give me your bleeping money so I don't have to pay for this myself.
By her own definition, complete pisstaker.
How did anyone ever fall for this?

That happens when you encourage people to steal from the shop you’re the spokesperson for.
Some older frauen will remember Ratner’s demise; Jack could have folded Superdrug if anyone ever took any notice of her.

DKL was made by Cactus who were commissioned by BBC

I saw footage of Celtic fans chanting "you can stick your coronation up your a, you can stick your coronation up your a, stick your coronation, stick your coronation...
Just add in quiche and dedicate it to guest

I was envisioning this being the *Boston* Celtics and was pleased but confused.

Makes me sound like Boney M.

Do my eyes deceive me in the patreon search or are we down to 415 hopeful, and patient, postcard enthusiasts gullible people?

Woah what wizardry is this? :O

It was TERRIBLE. There are loads of young influencers who would have made a really good job of it. Not the absolute pig's ear Jack did as usual.
