Charity chops can be amazing. I also don't believe guest ever found a whole rack of Viv RIP in her perfect size....

when my grandmother died she had two amazing fur coats that she'd had for decades that we sent to the charity shop. They were gorgeous but none of us in the family were prepared to wear them, as this was the time when PETA was splashing paint on people wearing fur and it generally gave us the ick. I'm quite conflicted about vintage fur, as the original act of cruelty is long past and it seems like an even bigger waste of animal life and disrespect to throw it away and never wear it.
If only we had vintage fur coats now, we would all have them on our beds or as dressing gowns to keep warm in. No synthetic material can come close to animal skin and pelts for warmth. The problem comes when it is commercialised, rather than as Eskimos etc do, which is only make them when required.

Luckily I don’t think she actually wore them outside the house. Aww remember when she used to get all dressed up for our benefit. Pretending to go on dates or out with her friends, or dressing up to go to some mysterious important meeting. Then she’d sit around the bungamansion logging into her sock accounts to defend herself from the haterz. What a glorious life full of adventure.
That's why the guest thing always tickles me, I bet she was absolutely full of it after being papped on an actual night out with bonafide celebs, getting up the next morning like a kid at Christmas ready to rub those nasty trolls noses in it, only to realise they didn't have a clue who she was. Makes the fact she repeatedly posed for a load of pap shots even more comical.

I got a very expensive Marshall stack for almost nothing a couple of years ago from a reasonably famous Belgian guitarist... Well, it was from his wife who he'd just ditched for a younger model. I assumed he'd get in touch for it but after a year I shopped it for a different amp. Am I Jack?
My husband has three Marshall stacks he is selling are you interested lol. He’s not famous like Jack, but he has a few tattoos? Hope that helps.

I did a year of no shopping this year and it taught me a lot about how much time I previously wasted on receiving, trying stuff on, packing back up and returning… as you say all time that could be better used elsewhere. It also helped me declutter my closet which has been amazing for my mental health.Less stuff means less to tidy, tidier house makes me happy. With the amount of “stuff” she has surrounding her she has no room to clear her mind and focus. It must feel insurmountable. I dont feel sorry for her , she’s a horrible dishonest person.
I would really like to learn more about this. Tattle doesn't have a PM function does it... Is there any way we can talk about it on another thread?

I have an old school friend who updates her Facebook photo every 5 mins with pictures of her in different outfits drinking wine looking as though the photographer had caught her unawares but coincidentally on her best side. Except if you look carefully the blurred background is her living room (even though she's wearing her new fancy coat) and the person who has taken the photo is her...its absolutely a selfie. She also does a good line in "I grew up in abject poverty" as though none of her Facebook friends are people who knew her at time, and we all know she bought a new pair of Levi jeans and a Fruit of the Loom sweatshirt every weekend when we were 14! It's one of the reasons I am fascinated with Jack, it's definitely a personality disorder type

Isn't it the 2 year anniversary of the Vuvuzela Barrage Interlocutor announcement soon? Maybe she's timing the big reveal for then?
I just reached the bit where she showed us how much forensic detail and serious data analysis she was doing on it

I am 100% behind real fur loungewear in the privacy of my own home. Don't think my ma would miss those coats at the back of her wardrobe.

If he's selling them for more than 100 EUR then I'll pass... I'm never going above that for a vintage Marshall.

Ah, beaten to it by the Thrifty Carrot!

Does she ever actually go outside the house these days?! Paranoia after it has snowed can be quite all-consuming... I hear.
A Southend-adjacent frau on a previous thread has seen her socialising in the wild, looking like she was glomming onto an aquaintance of their's.

FOUND IT... it was @Lucy Aeroplane

"Lads I’ve got some very weak tea, which is that in her time away from Twitter it seems Jack has not only been doing the most cringey PR campaign with Curry’s and awfully unflattering photos, but also been trying to partially reintegrate herself into some bits of local life. (I can only recount what I’ve heard from someone who’s loathed her for years and years, so there’s an inherent anti-Jack bias, but that’s only fair because Jack’s a shitbag after all.) Anyway it won’t surprise anyone here to hear that it appears she’s manipulating some people who are probably a bit too nice for their own good, and a couple who are a bit sad and thirsty (think lonely divorced dad sort of types).

The too-nice people are thankfully friends with people who knew of Jack back when I did, so she probably won’t be able to get her claws too deep in to them, even though nobody wants to upset them by telling them what a horror she is. Sounds like there’s a lot of restraint going on at the moment, but seeds are being planted and watered, so when the scales fall off, it won’t be too much of a shock. Must suck so much to be her and to know that nearly everyone she’s ever met thinks she’s a massive irredeemable hole. "

We had exactly the same dilemma when my grandmother died in the mid-1990s, she had furs from the 1930s. We donated them to the Bristol Old Vic costume department, where I'm sure they've now probably been culled for being non-ethical!

i'm not saying i'm pro-fur, but i do find it weird that people who wear leather and suede shoes have an issue with old fur coats.

mr laz is a good/bad/contrary example of this - i saw a jacket online i knew he'd love. he did but said he wouldn't wear it because it was suede. i was like: you wear suede boots every day?...
