On a grunk again but I saw this family this morning 💔 they had even been left with a little Duplo brick which was just out of shot as if they were mid-play 😭

I like the smell of that coal tar soap too! Maybe it just reminds me of childhood or something. Anyway, I wouldn't turn it into shower gel or liquid soap. I make do with a bar of soap just fine and my hands (and conscience) are perfectly clean.

I also love the smell of coal tar soap but I was a weird child.
I used to EAT Vicks Vaporub.

I also feel nostalgic if I see Cussons Imperial leather, remember the soap with the little square sticker on it?
Because my dad used it every day, so it reminds me of him.

My dad is DEAD
 
Thanks for putting this together.

It's even more horrifying than I remember.

That poor little thing suffered much more than she needed to all because Jack needed to get her narc supply topped up 😞

Truly sickening.
Her snippy, snarky responses to the people who made reasonable comments about the welfare of the kitten say it all, really. If she really cared about the poor thing she would at least listen to their concerns. She shouldn't be allowed to own pets :mad:

I've never gone as far as eating it, but I'm addicted to the smell of vicks. Have you tried their candles? Now there's an anchovy paste orgasm sound!

I bet Jack is sat right now furiously rubbing her forehead with a wire scour for the picture she got SB to take/SB took without her wanting him to.
 
It is the Mediterranean arse conundrum all over again. How did she get simultaneously stuck under a train but still able to hoist herself out without being turned into Flat Stanley?
To paraphrase Jack's tory hero Churchill, she is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside a chunky Mediterranean arse!


Just a wee heads up but a lot of fake fur from High street retailers has been found to actually be real fur, usually from rabbits, cats and dogs. Especially if made in China where it is cheaper to rear an animal in a cage than make synthetic fur. Hats with furry poms poms, gloves with fur cuffs and coats with fur lined hoods are frequent culprits. Most samples have to be lab tested as it is very difficult sometimes to tell the difference and people don't expect real fur products to be cheap. If in doubt avoid all fur products even if they are labelled as synthetic. Some labels claim fake fur yet lab tests show otherwise, so even the retailer can be lying or unknowingly sell the real thing because the supplier has lied. Fur farming is horrifically cruel. I do not reccomend googling as it will haunt you, just know that if you love animals, it is not something you want to contribute to.

I was about to point out the same thing re the key bunny. Even if JackAss was only vegan for a wee while she should know this. Hell, I've known for years and I'm not vegan!

It is absolutely heartbreaking how some of these cheap, imported goods are made.

Thank(space)you for putting it so eloquently.
 
This guy absolutely loves food, and his pictures are always incredible. Plus step by step videos. Jack had got such a cheek thinking she’s brilliant at what she does, compared to this guy who doesn’t rant and rave on Twitter all day.

The antidote to Jack’s Del Monte Dutch pancake! They’re not really getting their money’s worth are they?

Interesting stats:

likes on Jack's most recent Insta posts:

Spaghetti hoops & chickpeas: 1.598
"The best food is kind of a murky colour": 1.748
Hideous Del Monte thing: 403
Pasta with jackfruit vomit: 2.074
Be kind meme: 2.740

Del Monte gets a QUARTER of her next most popular post.

4x as many people like the rinsed hoops ffs!
 
They forced the door much later, in a different home, after she was a bestselling author and her agent apparently stole loads of money from her.

It's here in this terribly overblown begging piece. The title reads like lyrics that Morrissey rejected for being too angsty.

Great, so in May 2018 Jack posts this boohoo rattle rattle about how she has to move house. Years ago the gas men broke in, now it’s the leccy. Pay your fecking utilities!
So now another move. After two years. To somewhere cheaper. As we know she moves to the crappy 2/3 bed bungalow with LC.

What I’m taking from this is that from mid 2012-mid 2016 she was moving around a lot. The mention of the blue plaques- can we take a moment to appreciate she calls herself “charming-yet-chaotic” and says she kind of moved in with girlfriends. Who is the house moving truther, is someone keeping a list?

Choleric isn’t to do with cholera, it means bad tempered.

Also, I had a though again...wait for it!

Fire service - we know daddy was quite high up, I’m sure I also read that he was a union rep. If you had a problem with getting flexihours, surely you would get him involved? I think there is something else in the background and that’s why she applied for different roles and didn’t cause a huge fuss + Employment Tribunal. Possibly in trouble for working in a bar when should have been at the call centre, or on a performance plan, or had grievances against her. Just an opinion.
