I’m happy to admit I spend a fair amount of time watching board game YouTube channels (recommend Watch It Played/Shut Up and Sit Down) but the thought of watching Jack and Martin play monopoly.. no, just no. At least if Martin is involved any money raised would go straight to charity?

Definitely needs emphasising that the money raised will come out of the pockets of people with (probably) not very much themselves while these two people bask in the spotlight. I am sick of it.
 
Seeing LJC on IG scooping up more awards, looking beaut and having the time of her life with friends and colleagues is my antidote to twitter PhD monopoly Jack. What a way to live your life Jack. If you weren’t such an intolerable twit I’d feel sorry for you. Look at what you could have won!

She’s meeting a lot of people at the moment isn’t she?

Including someone who has recently come onto my newly laminated list.

On scones v. croissants, Joe Kennedy wrote a book called 'Authentocrats' about how politicians, in particular, love talking about what 'real' people like in order to try and look normal. He opens with the frankly embarrassing incident where Owen Smith MP pretended he'd never been given a cappuccino before in one of the many Italian cafes in South Wales, ignoring a very important part of Welsh heritage.

I think that fits Jack quite nicely. Real poor people eat scones and shop at Asda Shoeburyness.
 
.Kept my kids alive when they were little. I totally recommend it for weaning mums, got my great nephew on that tit a couple of years ago doors just so I could make myself some wafer thin ham butties. Really though kids love it, it’s like crack, easy to eat cos soft. Fancy faux holy communion stuff that… we had to practice with bits of paper 🤢
I love milk roll even now as a grown up. Used to use it to make chip butties as a small child

Are we really going to have to watch Martin Lewis & Jack play Monopoly?
Of course. I wouldn't miss it for anything. I bet the only people watching would be us tattlers
 
She needs reminding that a capable cook will cope with any cooking medium. But she's not a capable cook.
She needs reminding that what seems 'exotic' or non-basic to her might be foods eaten by people from different cultural backgrounds. She's obnoxiously ethnocentric.
I want her to get cockier and cockier. It's funny to watch. She is David Brent.
That is so unfair to poor David Brent! 😝 Although I think I’ve realized where she got the inspo for her Cotswold Sideboard Pose (TM)…
