Updated your front page Jack. DM me and we'll discuss my fee, thankyou.

So a quick calculation...

Jack has 344 patreons paying a minimum of £3.50
If all 344 paid just the minimum, that's £1200 a month income just from patreon.
Divide by £9ph, 133ish hours, divide by 4 weeks, 33 hours a week at £9

So tell.me again how she's poor?

This is the content I am here for. That and the constant investigation of the tragic bird deaths across the UK. The bird impaled on the fence was particularly traumatic.

It's not all doom and gloom, just look at these plucky little fellas. They were rescued and rehabilitated successfully before eventually being released back into the wild.
Fly high you brave little fighters🐦♥️

I'm really pleased that @essexgirl101 confirmed JM is lazy and entitled, these patreons that pay £X per month for zero content/rewards need to have serious words with themselves.

They are very cute.

I think it just seems like more people have things like ASD and ADHD, purely because there is more awareness. We span a pretty good age range here. Think back to your schooldays, and you'll immediately remember the kids who would today be looking at a diagnosis. Similar thing happened with dyslexia years ago - it wasn't actually that there were more people with it, just better recognition of it. My mum is most definitely dyslexic, but back in the 60s and 70s she was just called thick by her teachers because she just couldn't process things properly.

seriously though what were they thinking, if they had actually bothered to check her social media they would see that her most recent fish dish looked like THIS

And then there was that cod fillet that she slow cooked (?) in a loaf tin (??) for several hours (???) in Edinburgh. Fish is quite easy to duck up even if you know how to cook...but Jack takes it to another level.
 
I think she’s left the fish because she can’t cook it. Which is why she gives her son bollock sausages and has never, as far as I’ve seen, cooked him something like pork belly or a nice steak. If you eat meat (she does), and you’re paid to cook (she is, shockingly), then you need to have some actual skill. I think that’s another reason she uses tinned stewing steak etc she needs to use things that don’t require skill.

She’s not a vegan, or a vegetarian, she literally is incapable of cooking meat properly.

Slow cooked AFTER accidentally turning it into ceviche! I wish someone could explain to me how she is still getting paid to be a food writer!

My mum is a teacher at a high school, she teaches special classes to help kids with educational and personal issues catch up and stay on track. She's said that every year, the number of children in her class diagnosed with ADHD goes up. She really struggled to get an autism diagnosis for my brother (even strangers will ask if he's autistic, he's textbook and no, and they were never able to get a proper diagnosis), but most of the kids with ADHD are just generically energetic kids or kids who are a bit forgetful, but they're parents have some money or some doctor friends or harass their doctors endlessly for the label to get what is essentially an excuse for regular child behaviour.

The number of children diagnosed with ADHD goes up because we understand more about it and are better at being able to identify people who have it. This should be seen as a positive really because it means that we can tailor our educational approach to the pupils more effectively. Now we understand more about ADHD there are strategies for teaching that are more appropriate for people with it. It's a positive.

The mention of the loaf tin has reminded me of that sticky toffee lemon drizzle brick she baked in an old mess tin that she then couldn't dislodge it from. Cue several gushing posts about how it was the best thing she'd ever eaten and she'd greedily guzzled three portions as soon as it left the oven (with a suspicious lack of photographic evidence that she'd managed to do so much as get a knife through it).

This is what pisses me off so much about JM.The Patreon income is more than my daughter earns working 37 hours for the NHS, yet the mistress of slop whines on and on about RENTING, and all manner of other crap, while getting what is for many people, more than their wages, for doing absolutely nothing. That comes on top of what she can make by sticking her oar into whatever she deems to be newsworthy, or making a crap job of sponsored work.

Edit... punctuation
