Don’t know how to copy, but thread 41 post 612 has it
Jack Monroe #63 I tend to move in circles of cookery and politics rather than outrage and vitriol

Maybe Jack was? She does keep a box full of engagement rings at home. You never know when you might need one, perhaps?
I'm not sure I can really comment on Harvester as a whole because I've never been to one, but I did look up the Southend place on Trip Adviser for research purposes and some of the customer's photos are quite revealing. A couple of examples - the first one is captioned "raw chicken" and the second is captioned "Looking at the prawns gave me IBS". There's also a photo of an onion stuck to the ceiling. I think it might be fair to say this is where Jack learned her craft.

'I rarely post about my private life'
Bahahahahahaha!
because i'm skim reading i legit thought she was engaged (or re-engaged!) again already for a minute there...
How curious, what happened of she had of said no she would have been out of pocket by two rings and if had of used one of her many seems a bit low brow due to the fact it had been used to promise marriage to someone else.
Isn’t her one also on the non-traditional finger? How very traditional for her to break the norm.
back in the midst of the mega grunka.
Why does itv hate there viewers? Having had a car crash of jack cooking once they then bring her back for a repeat performance. They must have told her how long the slot was, surely by now even she knows how long pasta takes to cook
And she managed to miss the chicken entirely
thread #19 page 52 post 1040 if anybody is brave enough. The comments are hysterical and still people are saying she is new. How many years are you new?
on the next thread she says can’t wait to be back in the studio!!! She’s having a giraffe
surely?

Maybe she could stand in sometime?
Nah, they've already booked Ruby Rose.
Also having it ‘practically shouted’ at you.
I can just imagine Jack yelling, ‘I want to marry you. Are you going to say yes.’ at the top of her voice over the Eastenders credits tune, in a slightly resentful tone
Just watched the Edwina Currie thing I hate to say it but Rachel Johnson comes across really well doesn't she! Quite shocked about that. Jack really effed that up, she just came across as very angry. Then I watched the Lingreenie thing on this morning it was interesting looking at your back while you muttered Jackie love... Thank goodness for Ruth.

I loved that she quickly put out an article in the guardian after saying she hadn't got to say very much on the air and that she knew nothing about her Grandad's fortune he just taught her how to fry an eggJust watched the Edwina Currie thing
Nigella is going down in my estimation, because I’m sure she hasn’t read Tin Can Cook. Surely if she had, she wouldn’t be recommending it?

I just can't imagine Nigella ever cooking anything Jack has 'created'
Eamonn Holmes deserves some sort of TV award for not cracking up. Seriously, it should be shown in TV Presenting classes as how to remain calm under pressure. He must have let rip during the ad break. His face is showing nothing but everything. Almost half 'this is hilarious' and half 'is this actually happening?'Just watched the Edwina Currie thing
Legend
I think Nigella is well meaning but naive. Thoughts along the lines of, 'students are short on cash, Jack has made her name selling cookbooks for people on a strict budget, ergo...' I would imagine she's never felt the need to cook Jack's recipes as she herself has not had to worry about money
she comes across as someone who tries hard to get it right but is ultimately clueless.I love the image of him, poker faced, excusing himself during the ad break, walking stiffly out of the studio and then crying with laughter in the smoking area outside. Perhaps leaning himself up against a wheelie bin.
Actually the bag pockets of the bag are brilliant for when you're a greedy little goblin and
Nigella you do realise one of the recipe's in Tin Can Cook is for tomato soup... mixing a tin of tomatoes and a tin of tomato soup. This makes me doubt Nigella has even read it cos what a bloody piss take
I can't believe I bought this crappy book. I've never even properly looked through it. I was so embarrassed by it I just shoved it in a drawer.Nigella you do realise one of the recipe's in Tin Can Cook is for tomato soup... mixing a tin of tomatoes and a tin of tomato soup.

Might get it out later and brave the cringe.
I’ve been to that Harvester a few times over the years as my Nan loved it and they were good with helping her in etc. However it’s not somewhere I’d ever describe as impeccably clean like Jack did! Certainly not the worst place I’ve been in and no one I know was ever served food quite as bad as that but never perfect. If Jack has been served food like that there though it does explain a lot!- Status
