And the 'outing ' hobby (cycling)Her stupid bloody disclaimer reminds me of Mumsnet, when posters actually think their non-story will get lifted by the Mail. ‘I do not give permission for the Daily Mail to use this story bla bla bla. My DH has a hobby, I don’t want to say which. AIBU to want him to help around the house and be a parent sometimes?’

I love the money threads on there. Someone recently asked how much money people had left over each month after all the bills and the responses were amazing, most had around £2k or more!
I doubt Allegra needs to ask for free advice from Twitter, via Jack. Why create a focus group of numpties in a noisy room when you have the connections and money to inform yourself privately?
Allegra has two children, she's super low key about it though. I think it was on here that someone mentioned it.
Allegra had another child not too long ago. She has two daughters.
Damn beaten to it
It’s like a knife in my heart! What could I have possibly done to deserve THAT?! I have a low tolerance for bullshit and I am famously known (to quote JM) for being salty so I think I would deserve the gas and air
Too hard to choose
@Pocahontas would be taking notes throughout, writing up the recap
@Silver Linings would be silently screenshotting her endless tweets and reposting them on Tattle, occasionally sighing
And you dear heart @Montrachet would be attempting to calculate the weight of everything on the ward, from the beds to the newborns
I imagine all would be extremely irritating during labour
I think few people besides Jack would go to Twitter for life advice
I do think she’s just stirring/referring to herself but she’ll do anything for dramaWith the number of people who apparently earn a 'six figure income' on Mumsnet, not surprising.
My favourites are, my husband earns 100 times what I earn, but we treat all income as ours - he insists on it. I bet those have Jack gnashing her teeth and wailing I ike a banshee.
Imagine your fiancee being so mean with their income that you have to crying and rattling your begging bowl on Twitter soup can pay your share of the bills.
I love Jay Rayner! I only know him from TKC though, which is one of my favourite radio programmes (partly because of Dr Annie Gray and her infinite food history knowledge.) Now off to have a mosey at his thread - is it on Twitter?
@Sentient mirror (sorry @Sentient mirror ) because I feel like you would just watch in your sentient way and occasionally throw out top class witticisms.
The pregnancy advice is probably for a Panda called Ping Ping
There seem to be far more names and identities these days.
I didn't want to be accidentally insensitive. Which I have been, apparently.
I have absolutely no idea.

The brother is short as well! Nutrition, nutrition, nutrition for growing boys, don't look at a certain Twitter account, you'll receive no joy
There is no way that 4st 7lb by the Manics was ever played on mainstream daytime radio so that a six year old would hear it and remember it forever. Absolutely no way.
It was never a single (no tit
) and it’s not exactly a radio friendly song.I actually don’t understand those tweets anyway. Is she trying to hint that her six year old self was so influenced by one play of that song, it caused her to develop an ED in her teens? As for the comment about not meaning to lose a significant amount of weight, well that’s just grossly irresponsible and extremely triggering and she must know that.
I’m also not sure she’s telling the truth. To have gone from a normal, healthy weight (as she was in March on BBC1 to losing 33lbs... well, she would be dangerously underweight right now, wouldn’t she?
There are already so many better thread title suggestions, but what the hella AF ...

Not insensitive to me! I was just curious about a change in the lingo
I’m 5ft 2 and my 11 year old is taller than me. Stuck on that Jack.
I don’t even feel short, it’s only others mentioning it that’s the issue.
Hypersensitive to touch? What the duck are those revolting, niche fetish, cat videos about then? The look on her face as the cat's tail brushed repeatedly against her is enough to turn me celibate.
Now I've been insensitive. Comparisons (of height, of siblings) as they say, are odious
My mum is really really short, short enough that she struggles to find age-appropriate footwear (she misses living in East Asia for that!). So many people comment on it, like they think she doesn't realise? The same way they do when you're sunburned, and there's really no response other than "...yes."
Anyway, she doesn't bring her height up very often, no doubt because she's so sick of everyone else commenting on it for the last few decades!
I feel that, unless Jack's social circle consists mostly of Dutch people, other people don't mention her height all that often. Because it's not that remarkable, is it?
I always thought it was odd that in their article together Allegra clearly chose to protect the identity of her daughter by not showing her face however Jack didn't. You'd think they would have had similar values on that.
