My wife only got to have one Coronavirus ***. She only agreed to it as she was a nurse. Three months later she died.. Not from the *** I might add.

Shona's two most used words are Literally and Absolutely.She has a habit of gasping audibly before speaking but I think it may be that the mike is too close. It drives me nuts lol.

i would happily pay for her not to

Apparently. It keeps getting mentioned every once in a while.

I’m sure somebody posted Gen said in around 3 weeks

In fairness at least they are regularly price-matching these days..

Love that. Abso-frickin-lutely spot on.

I'm not 100% certain the quality of products will improve dramatically in the new studio. I imagine we'll get a few familiar brands peppered in (like eLife bikes recently) but …all this jumble sale fodder will remain, it'll just have more room to look cheap in.

TJC's business model - which works - is to sells really cheap stuff at cheap-ish prices, cheap stuff at okay prices, and occasionally ofer something decent at a decent price.

Admittedly TJC-IW does seem to be selling all the really cheap stuff at not-so-cheap prices (same items are usually on the TJC website for less) but presumably it's working. We're a few weeks in since the launch and nothing has changed (bar the wobbly table being thrown in the skip). If sales were slow/bad overall it'd be more a bit obvious (RIP Shop Extra) on screen.

Shona is taking a week off. To film a drama series

 

[Jazzydrury]

He calls himself award winning, what was that, the Worst Presenter, he says he has it, he hasn’t gone in with the virus as he

It’s diary time.

 

[Jazzydrury]

He has just said in a couple of years, he is leaving the industry

Yeah I was wondering if it might be a line in the sand, a reset of sorts from tat to half decent stuff. However as you say, if their model is to pile 'em high and sell 'em (not so) cheap, then perhaps we won't see any dramatic change product wise.

Peter has a son, wasn’t expecting that

I did a double take when he said that. I always assumed he "bowled from the pavilion end"
