In leftover larder she mentioned her oddbox so she clearly has a subscription. I still can't get over how awful they were I felt so sorry for the guests

That was Jack Monroe's Leftover Larder. Sadly, we are unlikely to enjoy the dubious delights of watching Jack failing to make a curry live again soon.
Re the shed: it would be hard to top the This Morning “lingreenie” segment for entertainment value.

Why is 'forensic' (and varients) one of her new fave words? Do they still show repeats of CSI and Law and Order during the day? She seems to pick up words from here a lot, but it's not something we've used, so must be off the telly
They sure do, Five USA shows a lot of Law and Order and I’m sure CSI too.

As a food writer, all she really should be forensic about is cleanliness and hygiene practices. (I’m not sure if that’s #saltylenny or #factuallenny )

Amazed she birthed silently tbf usually she can’t shut the fuck up about herself.
I hate the way she has humble bragged about it as if all women should be silent whilst giving birth. I really wonder what I would say to her if I ever saw her face to face. There's so much to say.

Is she going to the pop stars house today?
disappointed you can’t read the patreon comments. Have their been comments on twitter about it?

"Forensic" was used by the press a lot to describe Kier Starmer to the point of satire on twitter, im guessing shes picked it up off there.

She better not ruin AOC for me, that's one of like...two, maybe three...politicians in america i actually quite respect.

If I see a sitting congresswoman on twitter accepting Cackie's invitations to tea for some slop i will riot.

If I ever saw her face to face, I'd throw holy water on her and run away

Oh man, I checked in on her at the night feed at 1am and felt surprised she wasn't spaffing her inane election thoughts all over the place. I put it down to the lack of Redcar but turns out I was just too early.

Also, my drug-free labour is still painfully fresh in my mind. Painfully. If she was silent for 30 hours, she was in extremely slow labour because that whole situation hurts like a motherfucker. (No pride or judgement in my drug-free scenario there - I believed the natural birth bullshit. Never again.)

When she ripped the radiator off the wall during labour, was this too done silently?? Probably in slowmo with a violin soundtrack, whilst the medical staff clapped.

Fucknugget
I can imagine all of that happening in silent, spacey, slow-mo with Ride of the Valkyries playing in the background

Morning campers! I’m still grunking AGCJ...

Borderline Diabetes/Hypoglycaemia to be added to the hypochondria ailments list

[Yes] absolutely - her triple brag of silent labour, 30 hours, and being apparently sassy enough to demand to see the intricacies of major abdominal surgery don’t add up. Who cares if you make a noise giving birth? It’s not even a brag, it just makes you sound like your priorities are in the wrong order. Don’t Scientologists insist their women are silent in labour?

It’s not Eddie, is it?

Sometimes the blue curtain is lowered at the time of delivery but not during the actual operation. The patient wouldn't actually be able to see anything anyway. They are lying on their back, slightly tilted to the left and have a huge baby bump in front of them so it's impossible to see what's going on. Why am I even typing this, it didn't happen.

Does anyone get through 30 hours with any energy to sass their way through the finale? I got 7 hours in and let the midwife know if she could just make it stop for a couple of hours, I would have a little nap and return to it with renewed enthusiasm

Jacko going all forensic is the massive chip on her shoulder for not having completed education and therefore needs to make herself look somewhat scientific as opposed to blurting out weird stuff that she later deletes. Also staying up for an election is such a political maverick thing to do, ten stages above the Oscars night.

WhatsApp group. So strange, I just try to imagine her with friends, I mean, real friends you meet live...the image does not work. So the WhatsApp group is the epitome of socialising I guess. But proclaiming your forensic opinion on something is not what friendships are about.
