I know we're halfway through but bravo again on this thread title, it's a dinger. Bless you, Only Reading 1 Thing At A Time or whatever your handle was.
I hope she's in The Jungle. She's easily famous enough: they're all nobodies. Ricky Gervais's Extras predicted that 'celebrity' would eventually include a member of the public who'd been seen on News At Ten. "I got famous for saying I was poor, outed my child as a vaper on Question Time, and nearly stressed Matt Tebbutt into an early grave - Live!" must surely be a CV to die for.
Her continued description of suicidal thoughts, the worst depression ever and countless nervous breakdowns as well as an eating disorder and countless physical disabilities should make her even further from being a candidate than me.

A spite orangery full of cash, like the end bit of the Crystal Maze?

Lads, I've just bought a washing machine from Currys.

I feel dirty... I know how awful they are... But they were the only one I tried that could deliver this Saturday.

Should I mention Jack's collab to the installation person? I'm sure they're aware of it... 🙄

It's going to be 'Dancing On Ice' isn't it?
That's a Z list friendly show.
At least she'll get to wear a leotard again.

Re the bungamansion and house purchase, I've always wondered whether LJC was funding a substantial element of the rent if not all of it with perhaps some contribution from Jackie to the bills. Leaving Jackie to buy insurance items for herself and the entire Cotswold collection. They did not need a properly quite so substantial but I suspect there was an element of ' but I'm a cookery writer/activist blah blah' and need space to do such magnificent work and LJC bought it. Plus there was a child involved. Maybe a massive chunk was paid up front as well.

I'm also a long time buying a property truther although that's gone a bit doolally of late. I suspect papa was funding this and all the negative press over the last 12 months has made him question that choice because it would not look good. Maybe he's supplementing the bungamansion rent now. Who knows but it's all tres suspect. 🧐🧐

Eating kangaroo bollock would be like a holiday for her after all these years of tasteless slop

I’d love to see her on dancing on ice. She’d be the first simultaneously disabled yet Olympic level able bodied figure skater, on a celebrity ice dancing show yet being paid a pittance and can’t even afford to heat her bungamansion. She’d spend more time attempting to elicit sympathy and lying herself into knots than she spent with her skates laced up 😂

Led lights in your home cost nothing to run really. 15w is around £0.002 an hour .
Worth the investment if you can. Last longer too.

I do not understand where her money is going, especially as we apparently know what her rent is.

1650 rent
150 ish on council tax (https://www.southend.gov.uk/council-tax-bands-charges/council-tax-calculated)
50 on water
200 on energy
100 on food (the famous 20 a week plus a bit extra)
Total: less than 2500

She says she doesn't have insurance or broadband (yeah right), but even then I don't understand where the rest of the money is going?

Well, the truth lies in the last sentence of the quote which dear Mrs P cut off..
View attachment 2544551This was a year ago, a long time after LJC LEFT and just a few months after HH2.

As I've mithered before, something really doesn't add up here.
I had always read that last bit as “she’s a complete spendthrift now” and as Shatters throwing shade…

I think I was lurking here at the time but did guest once say that most of her patreon supporters were only paying a pound a month or have I remembered it wrong?
I just wondered if there was a screenshotted record of that conversation.

I think she was on 356, but I don’t think the wonderful @heretoreaditall2019 did us an update in early October.

ETA, it’s on Wiki 4, sorry. She started October with 353 patrons, but IIRC she inexplicably went up to 356 during the month. Officially down 10 so far this month, but I assume that this may decrease further over the next day or so?
heya, sorry I didn’t share the update just ✨life✨ got in the way, will share both months tomorrow ❤

Guest, utter beginner: Completed it, mate [skates as fast as she can and crashes into the boards]
