I buy these or something like these (I have none in at the moment so googled the picture) from Aldi or Lidl, basically mini magnums. They cost about £2 for a box so a bargain.
The are really good and because they are small you can have three a day..win win!

*I can’t not mention the cat situation, it is so sad, my biggest query is about where these cat currently is and why it is being released to someone who hasn’t got the funds or time to look after it. I really hope it is an attention seeking ploy and the little cat stays with people who know what they are doing and all tweets are deleted.

I love those watermelon lolly’s but they are always sold out around here 😭
Lidl’s fake milk chocolate almond magnums are my current favourite!

I’m a big cat lover and sadly can’t have one in my RENTED flat. It seems very irresponsible of her but she will have it anyway no matter what anyone says 😞

I can’t remember who was going to try and grow lettuce from a leftover lettuce stump but I posted a photo to say I was trying the same thing (way back around thread 18ish?) Mine is growing really well now!

Oh sorry, @Blurp, I missed this. She moved from Edinbugh to Fife a year or so ago, I think. Then got a new boyfriend / job in Glasgow, so was travelling between Glasgow, Fife and Edinburgh (where her kid's dads are, I believe) all through lockdown, while also claiming to have COVID. In the past couple of weeks she seems to have moved to Glasgow full-time, so it's worth avoiding Kelvingrove Park if you're in the vicinity.


Or she'll start a crowdfunder.

@Veronicaaa it is a FIANCÉ - they’re engaged 🙄🤣 The ever changing style makes me “hoot”. Used to be a 1950’s lady and now full on goth. Kids seem largely ignored unless they can be alt goth too. Where are the dogs (obviously they suited the 1950’s narrative better?)

The thing is alot of people in the UK forget how much medical care is because we don't have to pay for it. If j lived in america she would be expected to have insurance for her own healthcare as well as her pets or be able to prove she could cover the cost before anyone would touched her or the pet. Even know I worked in the sector my eyes really opened last year . Watching my neighbour was paying for her cats treatment, as I was seeing how much each visit was costing her. The treatment isn't cheap but again it wouldn't be for us if we didn't have the NHS.

Sorry off topic but talking medical stuff, does anyone watch Hospital? the TV series on BBC 2? It's filmed across all the hospitals in Liverpool and its quite eye opening, you do get to hear about how much certain medical treatments cost on the NHS, which isn't something we get to hear about very often since we don't pay for our treatments in the same way Americans do, but it's really good, lots of different stories from the patients side, from the hospital's/trusts side plus you get to see and hear what has been going on with the new hospital that was being built and had to stop because of the collapse of carrillion construction.

My landlord lets me redecorate, but only because he didn't do it before I moved in and it desperately needed doing! Lime green carpets anyone? 🤢 I have blue hair so it really clashes too 😂

I'm not allowed pets though, that's a strict no no. My neighbour has just got a kitten because she was bored during lockdown 🙄 but I know she's not allowed any pets so be interested to see how that turns out 😬

However, I've just bought a house (fancy!) and I earn much less than Jack does (speculation, your honour) it's taken me six years to save up enough to get a mortgage mind you

Congratulations on the new house, that's amazing 🍾🍾

Is it the same vonny that writes for the national that keeps breeding her 10 year old cat?

She’s deactivated her twitter and put her Instagram to private.

If so. That’s absolutely shameful. She’s said in the past on twitter that she has ADHD as well and hasn’t coped when she’s had pile ons.

I’m shocked at this if it is her.

She changes style to match whatever man she's with at the time. She gave her beloved 🙄 dogs away in order to take up a 6 month contract at the BBC. The contract wasn't renewed.

I know. I am also to blame for the weather being the same from the front door and the back door (two doors - fancy!)

That poor vet guy must have woken up and been like wtf? I love how her stans assume she can just scroll through her mental rolodex and text anyone with a blue tick.

The ones she can must groan when she does.

Oh god, that’s why she’s done it, so she can be on that guys tv programme with her little sad face

And don’t forget. She’s personally deeply upset about the taking heroin comment due to a personal deeply upsetting personal reasons from her past that she will not share. 🙄 she’s just so much more effected by it than anyone else.

Why? What on Earth could it be that the mere mention of it upsets her so much more than anyone else apparently. Her mum and dad aren’t as far as I know. To me that’s all it could be. That or a significant other dying from it and we would definitely know by now if that we’re the case! That one would have been dragged out for the pity parade long ago!

So what? Particularly emotionally wrought after watching Trainspotting??!!!

😂 The husband, who as I've said before, had led an 'interesting' life, was once a heroin addict. He certainly never freaked out if it was mentioned. I don't either, even though he was clean the entire time we were together, it still impacted on so much of his world view, and how the world viewed him. It's one of those things, isn't it?
 
Her performative poverty porn is being questioned and she has no adequate response. The only answer is to get a deformed cat for sadface cachet.

Every time I think she can't be any more of a loathsome twit she proves me wrong. It's quite astounding.

I absolutely adore animals. But I don't have any at the moment because I know that if I had one, and it became ill, I couldn't afford the vet's bills. And that's on a regular salary. She can't go blaming her ADHD on this one either because I've got it too: my impulsive streaks involve booking a citybreak with a man I've known for three weeks, or buying a pair of sequinned flares because shiny ooh. Not propping up my poor wickle urchin image with a sick animal.
