I have to wonder if she was "showcasing various images with Southend Arts Council" in the same way that she was "working with Channel 4's Fame School" (or whatever fucking bullshit that was, I CBA to look it up just now), in that she wasn't and the whole thing was a fabrication?

One of my favourite films of all time, she's absolutely brilliant in it. Up yer bum!

@YerDa I had no idea about Emily Lloyd's health problems - I remember her from several films in which she was incredibly good, but then she just kind of disappeared, and I wondered what happened. I hope she is doing OK now.

Very sad story. Her daughter has pretty much always lived with her ex partner because of Emily's mental health issues. She always seemed like a sweet girl who had too many demons and too much money, which is never a good mix.

It might have evolved a bit linguistically, but "never served" as its starting point definitely makes sense because it's often used for PCSOs, private security etc, sometimes probationers, but essentially those not on the front line. In policing anyway.

My military terminology is limited to (actual) Para speak thanks to some mates, but damn, that really must have been a crowded balcony eh?
The number of blokes trying to use that line to impress someone alone would have collapsed the thing!

I do seem to remember "jack" meaning lazy, precious and incompetent actually though, maybe that's what she means by military around the edges here?!

My family has a naval background and 'Jack' there is a rating. Similar to 'Tommy' in the army.

By sheer coincidence, I've just driven past a military round the edges roundabout 🍉 and felt compelled to share.
Safety fans, this a screenshot from Google maps and I'm in the passenger seat.

Good field of fire there.

Jack martyring herself and deciding to do all the catering, meaning the menu would all be cold slop.

She’s as bad at drinks as she is at food. Her “plum martini” made by mixing gin, ice and plums looks so…dense and greasy 🤢

ETA: A lot like the disgusting oily salty gruesome liquid from her hideous and dangerous Marmite Mug Pasta, in fact

I knew Jack was on the GCSE English syllabus, but I had no idea her slop featured in chemistry exams.

Penis beaker was a pile of shit attention seeking not funny thread on MN. Some idiot saying she kept a plastic cup on the bedside for her partner to wash his knob in. Much hilarity ensued with MNers spitting out their tea, laughing so hard they woke the baby/husband/dog etc.

I find it funny but I am very immature 🤣

It wasn’t just that dodgy poster who pops up here from time to time under different names with their piping hot bullshit tea. @Claret knows her/Dave and Ev and saw her in Southend over NY.

Jack Monroe #558 I own a fridge! This is my cooker! Look at my rug! Look at my duvet!

Apart from Marble by Jack Monroe. Jack Monroe must have been BUSY, cos “Monna” kindly signed that one. Think the matching signature also appears on Pancakes by Jack Monroe tho (Covered your spaniel’s ear and prominent southeasterly nip with a nice forever home ~with giant eucalyptus~ Jack...

She's accepted the "respectful pin drop silence" as a personal tribute, hasn't she? :mad:

What?

You can't fry water?

Did the little free recipe book not tell her?

I think even the box says not to add water to its innards but then how could she get that vile texture without it?
