Kate McCabe

[Annabel89]

ANOTHER charity shop haul. In it she has a book which she intends to give to Dainty Diaries (a Youtube friend of Mr Carringtons. She is very talented, and naturally charismatic and funny, i.e everything Kate is not).

We know Kate's not known to be generous, even to her friends. Therefore I can't see any other reason she would buy something for someone who she admits she doesn't know, other than to try to worm her way in to becoming friends to tap into her (much larger) audience.

We see STRAIGHT through you Kate. Dainty Diaries (Catherine) will stay well clear if she has any sense.

I used to really enjoy watching Kate but had to unsubscribe earlier this year before my eyes bled from boredom. Haul after haul after haul, seriously do people really want to see the same regurgitated crap over and over again??

The weekend vlogs were my favourite, mixed up activities and maybe a radio gig in the mix. They disappeared because she wanted to spend more time with her family, which is totally understandable, but I think she's fallen into a rut now and needs to seriously change the direction of her channel.

I also think she's a bit of a skinflint tbh. I remember watching her doing gift exchanges with other Youtubers and hers weren't very thoughtful at all, cheap yes for sure but no thought or effort.

I'd like to know if her garden is open to the general public... I have never known someone 'acquire' so many different pieces of garden furniture (or other shi-te for that matter) for a family of just 3! I liked her initially but (like some of you guys) the excessive hoarding makes me question her sanity and I find her greedy manner off-putting. The house is stunning, yet she has filled it to the beams with cheap thrifted tat. It's almost a shame.

Ugh. It's a car boot haul up today. More candle holders and Cath Kidston Yes, well done Kate, you have bought more things you don't need just to say you've "found treasure" or got "such good bargains." I notice she justified buying the Cath Kidston hand creams by saying they've pretty much used all theirs, then when she realised they were body wash said that's good as they have plenty of hand cream! So which is it Kate?!

 

[littlemisshuff]

Marylou - I agree! I also used to like her, but it is brain numbing sitting through endless hauls of absolute shite shes's bought. And her grinning, self satisfied, smug face as she shows off her "treasure" and "absolute bargains" whilst squeezing herself into her latest size 12 dress, is just TOO MUCH!!!

 

[Gossngiggles]

I think Mr Carrington would be wise to distance himself for Kate. I never watch his videos when she is in them. His star seems to be rising.

 

[Annabel89]

Cringe. Isn’t she “wacky and fun”

Omg! She really does think she is funny, doesn't she.

She looks like exactly what she is - a dumpy, frumpy middle aged mother with absolutely zero self awareness. No wonder she always gets dumped from these radio stations (including Pontins FM it seems).

I haven't watched Kate for a very long time and for some stupid reason I watched one of her latest car boot hauls. I actually forgot how much she annoys me, how has she got any subscribers left. Banging on about free football match tickets and free books from the car boot. Then she only bought manky shoes a vest top that she would have to grease herself up to stand half a chance of squeezing 1 nipple in to it and some ratty old plant pot things. All treasure of course, and why does she talk to her clearly teenage son like he's a 5 year old with a brain injury. Nearly forgot the precious mug not Kate kidson sadly had to settle for Sophie allport this time

 

[Annabel89]

Also just noticed the first post back on her home account is of her hallway. Thank fuck for that - after 2 weeks of not seeing it, I was absolutely gagging for a bit of hallway action.

 

[Marylou]

So I just watched 12 minutes of complete and utter waffling

Kate's feeling blah and did one of her daft voices on numerous occasions to emphasise but don't worry, she's sending us all virtual hugs (again with daft sound effects)

She's not going to be as "productive" as she was in the last lock down
She's not going to post every day like last time - whew.
Fear not, she still has no less than 5 hauls to share

So many times she went to stop talking yet continued to waffle on about the same points. The whole vlog could have been condensed to 3 minutes, Rufus took over for the last one btw.

This is the exact reason I stopped watching her! Those 12 minutes were awful but I really wanted to see what she has planned for her channel only to discover that it's more or less of the same crap.

 

[Annabel89]

I think so, though maybe I have made an assumption there. Luke had the puppy with him so not sure they would have been allowed in a hotel? I didn't watch it too closely to be honest so maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe they stayed in one of her holiday lets. Either way, they were at her house before they went to the car boot sale, so I don't think it would have been too much trouble for her to provide some breakfast. The lazy bitch.

Luke and Mr C definitely looked done with her in the video. And @gbg414 is quite right about it being telling that she dumped them in favour of getting her mits on yet more tat. She's probably a horrible friend, hence why Louise ditched her.

Mr C is no fool. He will be well aware that Kate is in no way as nice as she likes to pretend she is for the viewers. He may also be aware of this thread. He is doing well in his career it seems, so he is most likely wary about hanging out with someone with so much negativity and (well deserved) criticism surrounding them. Plus let's face it, she is annoying as can be!

 

[EBE2021]

Wicker item
Candle
Travel mug
Teacup
'Autumnal' mug (also appears in Freya Farrington's recent vlog)
Hideous clothing x 2 (size large this week)

I think the only thing missing this week is some fake flowers and an item of Cath Kidston shite

 

[Annabel89]

Latest Poundland haul she says she’s filmed a few weeks in advance and situation may have changed..... but then she goes on to say she didn’t get round to painting her pumpkins with the paintbrushes... so which is it? I reckon she went to Poundland this week and didn’t want to me judged for going to buy tat that she even says her husband won’t want in the midst of a pandemic

Yes, I think she has done this sort of thing before - lied and then not quite got her story straight. She is obviously aware of the criticism. I think this is what lead to the whole pity party video she uploaded the other day. I am so pleased so many others are seeing through her!

 

[Marylou]

Why does she say "you're lovely" to the inanimate tat she buys? Cringeeeeee.

Cause she's a lonely bored housewife with no real friends so she talks to the tat she constantly buys.

 

[Minxxx]

My curiosity got too much so decided to have a listen. The music is good. Although Kate isn’t doing the stupid voices (yet) she’s already talking about gravy bones ffs!

Good foot exfoliation of a morning

 

[Swipeuptobuy]

Busting out at the bust ….piggy feet on sight ewww she dresses not for her size …for a bargain …if it had Hermes in the label but looked like shit I wouldn’t wear it …

 

[Annabel89]

Ohhh more exciting content from Kate! A LIDL haul and she managed to buy a too tight dress whilst she was there. Combining two of her 'talents' perfectly.

 

[Gossngiggles]

I think there are a huge number of people out there who watch mindless videos like Kates, they don’t require you to think and because everything is so cheap it is stuff anyone can afford.
I love seeing what people find in charity shops but only when it is something they genuinely want and will use rather than just buying because it’s there.

 

[Pixi]

I dont get why she shows prices of things from charity shops. It's not like we can go out and get it. One cause they are from a charity shop and 2 because we are in a pandemic and not going out buying crap for the sake of it. Dont get me wrong I do love a good charity shop (mainly for books for my daughter) but I dont buy crap for the sake of it. Like that pink phone!!

I dont know where she keeps it all. I remember when she showed the room where she films and it was such a mess. I know rooms get messy but if I had a house like hers I would want to take pride in it!!

Also agree with others about her Dad not being very funny. I watched some of her very very first youtube videos and they were so cringy the are like comedy sketches, again not very funny. Like father like daughter.

I dont rate her singing much either. And I'm not keen on her friend Louise, what's all this "Huns" about!! I unsubscribed from her as she was too much.

For me the only part of Kate's videos that I enjoy is Rufus her dog!!
