Hahaha petulance personified!

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!
She definitely has a prominent nose. I do too and used to feel self conscious about it as a teen until my face grew into it. So I know what it's like to over exaggerate in your head something you're insecure about. However, this is Jackie. There is definitely no bump when you see her from profile. She hasn't been photoshopping her pictures that much... I thinkDoes she even have a bump in her nose? I've never noticed it. Why does she lie in the most obvious of ways
What the everloving duck is all that?!
I've got more china than I need myself in that that I have two full services but one is my own Denby and the other my mother's bone china, plus the mismatched Asda/Ikea/Matalan white stuff I use for everyday on my own (plus the melamine in the caravan
), but what the hell does she need all that for? She doesn't have people round, whatever she says. The only person I've ever come across with that sort of collection ran a party/wedding hire business!
I know loads of people who have books for their book case to prove a point, bug have in fact never read them. I have read all the ones in mine but I have been to peoples houses and saw an obscure book about a awkward subject and asked people " oh have you read it?" And they nearly always say not yet, I was told it was good but havent looked yet. Thats fine but nine times out of ten they will have similar books with a similar subject and yet will have not read them. It's all for show to their mates.
Those books make me think of my student days, when I would have my own shelves and table carefully curated to make me look like I was a super interesting, well-read edgy person, just in case anyone I wanted to impress came round. They never did. Cringe.
Imagine if she was collecting Panini football stickers. No need for ‘got, got, need’ with Jackie. Euro 2020 sticker book? Completed it mate.
It reminds me of this
There’s no way she’s read all of those books. I’m a big reader, I fit it in much more than most people I know, and I’ve gotten through probably half of that size pile during lockdown. The main reason I don’t believe it, though, is that she hasn’t gained any kind of insight or opinion from any of those rather meaty subjects. It’s different if you’re reading flowery novels, but the type of books she’s supposedly gobbled up like a greedy goblin whilst working 20 hours a day in bed, you don’t just whizz through and come away with nothing!
I believe that's Cooking on a Bootstrap. She sells her own books on her website so will have multiple copies of them
Reminds me of Father Ted and his copy of Crime and Punishment;
" I must have read that book ten times"
"I see you're reading it again, there's a bookmark on page seven"

I think this too. When you read a book you kind of curl up with it and take the time to enjoy it - Jack just says manically she's read a book, twice, already. I think with her SM addiction she can't concentrate for more than 10 seconds on something, so how could she read a book properly?
"Welcome to the Cotswold Company madam, what are you looking for today? A sideboard, a dresser, a chest of drawers, or perhaps a dining table?"I didn't realise the dining table was Cotswold Co as well
"Yes"
Superb!
She doesn't read them, and who is there to quiz her about it?! Who is bothered enough on SM to have a full discussion about them?
I'm still sitting here with my copy of The World's Worst Parents (that I bought on 6th July due to Jackie's ranting
), waiting for her in-depth book review!! That's why I don't tend to read those books at present, I am mentally very busy my brain doesn't stop as it is, If I read those sorts of books my brain would go into overdrive and I would never sleep.
I like novels that don't take alot of brain space at the minute. I tried reading "the girl who runs with wolves" and it made my brain go into overdrive.
I think you’ll find that cold curry the next morning is *chef’s kiss*And she goes on to say it was 'so delicious that I had it cold for breakfast this morning, smeared on toast'
(or should that be *NOT A CHEF’s kiss*?)
Brilliant!
Her own books? Shelf of shame or copies ready to be signed and forced onto people
So she’s writing this book in 40 days-and the world can look forward to her ‘raging’. Nobody’s interested in your temper tantrums Jack, is it just me or are others wondering just what qualifies her as a specialist in this area?
She lived in poverty for a short time a decade ago. She’s claiming to be ‘making notes’ from her extensive library & asking for people’s stories (who’s to say that these accounts are accurate or verified-she’s going to be researching the validity of claims on the side no doubt?) Anyone could massively exaggerate (cough, you know who) & she’ll be a laughing stock if it turns out that her fact checking is less than rigorous.
I suspect she’s struggling for food ideas, has pissed off a lot of people & is desperately trying to stay relevant in her chosen ‘field’. Her story is so bloody boring, it’s been done to death & it sounds as though she’ll just be using the work of others & ‘raging’.
I reckon she’s missing a trick, she could become a regular on the panto scene, wheeled out to do an uncle Albert ‘during the poverty’. All the kids could yawn & widow twanky or someone could make her disappear through a trapdoor.
I’d watch that.
