I also remember where I was and what I did on the sacred day of thread 31. I painstakingly, forensically detailed every last comment to my then partner who I went on to leave due to abuse - the absolute only reason I want to ever sit down in the same vicinity with him is to tell him what a collosal fuck up Jack has made since we split up because he was so invested in her chaos

That story about the freebie for the single mum alway reads as a bit creepy to me.
And even if it’s not, it’s yet another member of her family blowing their own trumpet about what a great guy they are (see also: Big Dave).
It also makes it sound like the single Mum took her kids on holiday without a reservation or any money? Either that or she was just so obviously povvo he couldn't find it in his heart to accept any money.

As an oft brain fogged frau, I appreciate the posts from the past Marm, helps me remember little forgotten gems.

They saved up all year for a single night? They would be travelling both days and barely spend any time there. Sounds exaggerated/made up.

I’d never seen Terrible until today. Thank(space)you very Matt much Yel and Vali, that was delicious

And surely most of the moving was during the pov? Maybe Leggy and LJC had to use them as loo roll in desperation when Jacks food made them uncontrolled SH!TTERS.

Put a big obvious sticking plaster over it and make sure it's on show at all times, but never explain why it's there.

EDIT to add I meant over the bite NOT YOUR FANNY

I am actually LITERALLY crying with laughter now. I keep re-reading it and it's as funny as the first time.

Who takes kids 'on holiday' to a B&B for only one night? You're either local (in which case you take the kids to the seaside even if it means a bus or a train ride) or not, in which case you don't travel to another area for a one night holiday. Makes no sense. Maybe she was a hook up of grandpops...

But its an opportunity to showboat generosity and charity but what makes me cringe is the selectiveness of that kind of charity (not that its real cos it aint) and the 'worthiness' of the single mum with two kids. Ugh.

Can’t believe Captain Tom’s daughter has taken pole Position on the grifter grid from our Jackie gal.

New here so don't know if I've done this right but if it's not getting better go and see your GP or pharmacist as you may need antibiotics - horsefly bites this summer are causing dermatitis/allergic reactions. HTH thankspaceyou

That fucking denial! What could be a more convincing way to phrase "no" than, "I can't remember if I did this very specific thing I would never, ever have done so I mustn't have done it but if I did then I'm very disappointed in myself"

She's fucking unhinged.

Sometimes you just have to admire her commitment to spouting shite. Any old shite will do.

Saved the whole year to bring her kids to Southend for the night? Sounds like someone who either doesn't exist, or could give guest a few grifting lessons.

omg, she’s so rude! cutting matt off with “now you’ve stopped talking”, matt’s “good to know” under his breath... this man deserves a standing ovation for the way he’s suffered in guest’s proximity with all her honking

I was looking for the cover of her KS book earlier ( side note: all her book covers are terrible) and got led to the Kickstarter page. Thirty people pledged 200 quid each for a party invite and one a̵b̵s̵o̵l̵u̵t̵e̵ ̵s̵u̵c̵k̵e̵r̵ poor deluded soul seems to have paid TWO GRAND to be cooked dinner at home. There's comments saying "there was no party" but I wonder what happened to the private dinner backer.
