Just watching a Gordon Ramsay show where he's sharpening a knife in the opening credits. Can confirm he's not shaking his (Mediterranean or otherwise) a like he's trying to dislodge a troublesome winnet

This bed-warming chat reminds me... not to pull old fogey rank or anything, but in the early 90s we rented houses with no central heating, fireplaces in the bedrooms, electric heaters, electric blankets, round-pin electrical sockets still on the walls, single glazed sash windows... Did I mention this was the 90s?!? No rose-tinteds here, it was crap and we knew it was crap.
This wingnut turned off the heating in her 21st Century laminate floored halogen downlightered executive apartment and crying hypothermia came up with an entirely ineffective and ridiculous reinvention of the Victorian bed warming pan. Give me strength.
Sorry. As you were. 😉
My mum was an old bag and our house was freezing. We only had about 3 rules and one of them was

NO SCARVES IN BED

Wtf was I supposed to do with all the VW I found in puddles? Did she literally want me to stop breathing?

What kills me about the Guardian cover shoot is that it was a perfect social media opportunity. "It looks like I'm naked in a tub full of pennies. But that's not what happened! Go behind the scenes with me in the studio to see how we did it!" followed by pix, video, etc. But no, the stupid cow had to claim that she was in the nip and got coins stuck up her a, and then looked like a fool and doubled down when she was challenged on her lies.

It probably didn't help that she p***ed off the photographer, MUA, stylist etc by being four hours late and then being a diva to them. If she'd been on time and been nicer, there might not have been as much pushback on her ridiculous claims.

IIRC didn’t she also try and massively backtrack saying something like “I didn’t say the bath was full”

Ninnies! My husband (completely unaware of Tattle, and would look at me askance if I tried to explain it) suggested a recipe from AGCJ as part of this week's meal plan. While looking it up, I amused myself reading the acknowledgements...

1) Mates with Tom Parker-Bowles, eh? Much destitute, so poverty, wow
2) "A good reputation lasts forever" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 sure, Chockers, if you say so...

3) Rob has a lot to answer for.
4) Battling trolls even before her first book was published! She really is a warrior.

Just jumping back to this, specifically the "thank you to Miss Saville (yes I know you're married now but you'll always be Miss Saville to me)".

Bit bleeping rude to call someone by a name they don't use anymore, no? She wasn't too happy when her relatives kept calling her by her previous name, I think she even blogged about how furious she was at her rude, offensive family members?

One rule for her, another for Miss Saville.

This is what really confuses me. I’ve seen people on here say she’s “attractive” but she just….isn’t????? I was reasonably “ok” looking when I was younger (I’m not now because, age, chronic illness) and I simply can’t even fathom thinking SO MUCH of myself. Does she have some form of magic mirror? It’s a-clentchingly embarrassing enough when GOOD LOOKING people are so narcily obsessed with themselves, let alone when someone who does it has more gum than Wrigleys and the fashion sense of a toddler that’s been allowed to dress themselves alone for the first time in the vain hope they will shut up and get out of the door in time for school.

She should be studied, her brain is NOT normal.
I think Jack is (or was) conventionally attractive. If she wasn't, she would have never become the Guardian's favourite poor person 2013.

I would never describe her as striking, sexy, beautiful, stunning, or even very attractive, but her looks are conventional and regular, and she was attractive enough to attract mummy allegra.

She's what wish would send you if you ordered Natalie Portman, keira, Ruby rose, texas Charlene, elasticas justine, or Robert Smith. She is not pretty.
All others listed are.

From a health and safety point of view I would suggest that wearing a scarf in bed is a decent way to cause yourself to stop breathing, to be fair.

I do sometimes sleep in jogging bottoms and a t-shirt if it's cold. No scarves though.

That article was meant to be her mea culpa
