Jesus christ, that poor, poor assistant.

When she turns up here it'll be like Cinderella turning up.
How can she even still be furloughed? Her job is to sit on a computer, which she can do from home.
Some of my nurse colleagues are coming back to work next week after sheilding (worked from home throughout though) due to serious health conditions which meant they had to stay at home. I have colleagues expected to come back in who have heart conditions, respiratory issues, diabetes, sickle cell... I reckon Jack just wanted to play the Martyr! Or is pocketing government cash.... Nahhhh surely not.
 
I hate how she keeps personifying her big ginger cat, mentioning that it still keeps looking for the kitten, mewing and looking around perplexed. It's not a beatrix Potter character!
It's bollocks. I've had God knows how many cats in my life and there is no way a cat would still be looking for the kitten now. Two of my cats were inseparable and when one made the final trip to the vets, the other was noticeably looking for for her and seemed mildly distressed. After about a week he was back to normal and catting about. Those were cats who'd been together for about 11 years. Jack's big cat has probably stashed a mouse he caught somewhere and can't remember what he did with it.

Recap of thread #58
The next Orwell, a superhero, or just a child with a pocket full of stones [oyster shells]? Who IS Mack Jon-Row Jack Monroe?

One thing for sure, even when having her 1,347th break from twitter due to the ‘chemical rollercoaster’, Instagram seems to be her safe place for publishing poems, providing updated details of her Patreon (swipe up!) and pictures of her childlike pockets.

She briefly came back to Twitter to ask for pics of ‘doggos’ and other animal breeds, seemingly forgetting how to do a google image search.

She’s been retweeting Nigella’s kind words about her ‘work of art’ Potatoes blog, and expressing her disappointment in finding out ‘who actually cares about [her] as a whole human being’. Perhaps Nigella is BUSY 😬.

She cooked some calzone with a gal pal and SB in a gifted Ooni pizza oven. They looked edible.

She reposted the previously deleted poem that she wrote in a couple of minutes both yesterday morning and the day before, yet both qualifying as now.
Haven't caught up yet - I'm BUSY (and sadly not with pizza ovens) but this recap is hilarious! Not sure if it's the best ever, or the only recap ever, but regardless, I'm hooting. Now.

Or....shes just lying👀
 
So odd!

I noticed on Monday that I could no longer see it 😩
I think you might have accidentally clicked Ignore at the top of the thread. To test the theory out I just ignored another random blogger's thread and I can no longer see it when i go back to check. Perhaps admin can help get it back for you?

I don't know if you are accessing on phone or PC but I see this on my phone:
