It's insulting, isn't it?

On every level -- to the clients, Curry's; to the teams of staff undoubtedly put to work on this disaster; to the manufacturers of air fryers and pressure cookers who all have tried and tested recipes on their own websites that akshully work for those appliances; and to the cash-strapped consumers looking for trusted and reliable advice to make their money go further.

Jack Munroe is a bleeping disgrace with a terrible haircut.
To be fair, this smacks entirely of the sort of half-arsed, fluffy, ill-thought out and poorly executed tit that PR agencies dream up and get paid very handsomely for. However, the onus is still on Currys’ comms team to agree and sign off. It’s their staff who will now have to pick up the pieces, while DaddysMoney PRTM waltz off with the money.
 
This feels like a good time to mention the worst shopping experience I've ever had, and it was with Currys:

I
bought a TV from Currys, and paid and extra tenner for timed delivery. The time slot came and went, so I called them, and they said " it's been delivered, you signed for it"

I told them I hadn't received it, and thy said they would look into it.

I called every day for 2 weeks, and each time I had to explain myself from the beginning... The customer service was tit. Still no tv

Eventually they said that they were passing the matter to the police, as I had signed for and received the TV, and was now trying to get a refund, which was a criminal offence.

They told me to find it myself as they were doing nothing.

I was so anxious about this, so I signed up to 192.com, which had a feature "search my neighbours", and I found someone who had the same surname and initials as me, a few streets away, and I actually had to go round and ask if they had my tv. They bred Rottweilers and were very angry.

About 2 months later, a battered tv arrived, and it had indeed been delivered elsewhere.

Currys were awful, just horrendous, accusing me of theft when all i wanted to do was buy a telly.

Jack and Currys deserve each other
 
Ahaha just realised that pear cake is a rehash of her Lorraine abomination. She’s even done the apple sauce thing again.

Also lol at any kind of sugar. All sugars are interchangeable. I’ll just use icing sugar then.
The only cake that comes out as it goes in. You could literally tit a brick.

Who looked at that abomination and thought we shall publish that?

Plus side, excellent chaos. I've waited a long time for this
 
Just wondering if Currys have based their savings on Jack's conventional cooker timings?
Monrue: "So this normally gets 2 hours at 180 then into a pan and 90 minutes reducing on the hob."
Currys marketing team: "But only 14 minutes in the air fryer! Make it twice and the thing has paid for itself! Fuckin hell this is gold, that's our bonuses locked in for this year, lads!"
 
Sorry if already posted (am currently Grunking this unexpected Friday chaos), but as well as previously claiming she wouldn't use an air fryer because they're "not accessible enough", she's also claimed that she'd never own a pressure cooker because her firephone days taught her they're too dangerous...fine for the povs though, presumably.

It's truly breathtaking how quickly her convictions and values vanish as soon as someone waves a wad of cash under her nose.

Look at these two together. The Curry’s one is a more heavily airbrushed/filtered, but the Guardian team clearly didn’t do her a dirty cos she was late. This is her LITERAL face now.

What is she on about anyway? A pressure cooker might in the past have exploded occasionally but it’s a pan, not a firework, why would it set on fire!? And now with electric pressure cookers they even turn themselves off, absolute godsend for the adhd!
