They always advocate unpractical extreme measures aswell not taking into account the constraints of budgets, working lives and disposable free time. Lots of them demonstrate disordered obsessive miniscule eating like that Deliciously Ella rubbish where the recipes are all something like a moths fart and an eighth of a courgette flash fried in a hunger pang. I'd rather be a bit fluffy round the edges and able to enjoy food with family and friends ta luv.
Preach Foxy!
Indeed. Where has the idea of balance gone? And how does Three Tin Tender fit into the idea that Jack is the expert when it comes to UPF-free meals? (With apologies to @Geetbo for the gastric flashback.)
Glad you’ve said it as there’s been loads of things that made me feel that they have a lot of similarities.
I wish she would clear up the fraud allegations, the coke rumours, and most importantly what happened in Dordrecht.
Also, since guset likes Enid Blyton so much, SB should make her an apple pie bed and send her to Coventry.

20+ year running, as the saying goes there are lies, dammed lies and statistics 
Just remembered by reading through all the GCSE mither that I actually didn't get enough A-C GCSEs to join sixth form but they let me in on the condition I took a GSCE alongside my A Levels to correct it. I had totally forgot about this however, as it isn't some cornerstone core memory I've built my sob story grift upon.
I did my maths twice, so does that mean I have ten GCSEs now?!
In my day, in Jack's day and now you can leave school with no gcse and pass an apprentice aptitude test. How I went to college and uni
These people hate/fear food @Foxvint. Saddest recipes ever. I did appreciate the slightly less pc version of the food hate/fear genre: I think it was the French women’s diet which consisted only of a small piece of steak, a couple of boiled eggs and a bottle of wine a day
It’s not just a thought. She is.

Moth’s fart! I love it. I can totally imagine it being used as a descriptor for some foam-of-something topping on a sliver of grape, brought to the table on a mould of a fox’s paw - for £50 a head.
Same! I had to re-sit maths. The only reason it sticks in my head is that I had a bit of a spliff before the exam second time round and found it much easier as a result
There’s a diet I could probably get along with. I might need a few more eggs thoughThese people hate/fear food @Foxvint. Saddest recipes ever.

I didn’t but I did no more work than I had the first time and made very little effort and passed. GCSE’s strike me as rubbish anyway and not a fair assessment of anything really.

myself here, but I did no work at school beyond what I had to in lessons, no homework and in some exams I did the wrong sections of the paper; you were meant to answer the questions on the source material for the countries you had studied (or not in my case). As I had pretty good reading comprehension, I read the whole paper and decided I could actually write more about the countries I hadn’t done at school. So that highlights a disparity in the quality of source materials used in just one paper.I also thought for one of the English papers you had to answer with a poem.
Narrator: students were not meant to answer with a poem.
Anyway, I came out with 3b’s, 4c’s, 2d’s. One of the c’s was the wrong country paper - I’d been predicted an e/f. The poem paper got a b. So I feel like a lot of it is absolutely random and can’t really say anything about someone who passes in a middling way, other than that they can read.
You must be confusing her with Owen Jones. Allegedly.

I got the boak just from looking at this
I'd like to point out that I have been following these threads for the best part of a year ( started whilst on holiday last year and am on holiday again) and she's done feck all really hasn't she...
Surely you ought also to be awarded an honorary doctorate from at least one of the redbrick universities?
In fact, I would argue that a "pome", probably involving lots of words, many of them different, and some of them sounding a bit the same of some of the others, ought to mean an honorary professorship (if such honorarydom exists).
