Of her clear love of Tupperware.

❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’d love to know her favourite ones and what water bottle the kids had. And the cool bag. I loved that cool bag.

And in other news it’s a slow slow day in the gluey household.

You’d love to know a stranger’s favourite Tupperware? Do people have favourite Tupperware, and are others actually interested? Confused

UrsulaPandress · 12/07/2019 17:38

I love a bit of Tupperware. But it does go missing.

MyBootsAreMuddy · 12/07/2019 17:44

@glueandstick it's okay, sometimes spits water at you from the straw when you open the lid, but tends to be if it's been shaken about a bit.

noodlenosefraggle · 12/07/2019 17:45

She probably does cook and do a picnic for the kids, when she feels like it, because it's probably quite fun when you do it once in a while, knowing someone else will do it if you choose not to bother. I don't know why I should love her for it though. I manage to do 2 packed lunches every day, and put a picnic together occasionally with my array of plastic pots, just like millions of other people!

I think of all the things I’m maybe most envious of about their life, being able to walk around Waitrose flinging things in the trolley and paying no regard to the cost must be one of the biggest ones. I don’t need palaces, housekeepers or millions of pounds, but a limitless grocery budget would be a dream.

TSSDNCOP · 12/07/2019 18:02

Tupperware used to be really, really expensive. DM’s went crazy if you lost it. DM has had some if hers at least 40 years. I think that’s more than single use Hmm

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 12/07/2019 18:20

YABU. She is the last person I'd ever teach my daughters to look up to. Becoming an adjunct to a man's identity and not doing a day's independent work since your graduation day isn't exactly a yardstick for female achievement. If I wanted a role model from the Windsor family - and hell would freeze over first - at least Meghan has some independence of mind, has forged a career for herself, and can actually articulate a coherent sentence.

Mrs Bennett was invented in 1813. That's just where her kind of attitude belongs.

Sycophants. What I wouldn't give to be able to leave this country for good.

wibblywobblywoo · 12/07/2019 18:20

Love Tupperware, especially vintage Tupperware, the colours were better IMO and I'm also made up that the Queen has the same radio as me! Or she did in 2003 at least. Smile

TigerLilyMasie · 12/07/2019 18:20

Would have loved her that bit more if the sandwiches were wrapped in tin foil and a 'bag for life'.

ExtraFox19 · 12/07/2019 18:22

Woman looks after her kids and gives them packed lunch. Wooopee shit. Get a grip. Honestly. Life has more riches to offer than some lazy Sloane and her picnic.

Butchyrestingface · 12/07/2019 18:28

As PP have said, her housekeeper loves tupperware. I doubt her nibs has ever assembled a packed lunch in her life.

According to Hello (God help me):

"she offered up what looked like everyone's favourite picnic treats – flapjacks, carrot batons, slices of pepper, cookies and more. Kate had packed the food into plastic containers but also prepared another dish in a disposable foil tray. The children had bottles of Evian and plastic sippy cups to drink from."

You can rest easy now, all those dying to know what was inside the plastic fantastic.

Seriously, what's stopping you?

Carpe diem and all that.

Have the courage of your convictions and book that one-way ticket to the People's Republic of wherever. Grin

TheBigBallOfOil · 12/07/2019 18:34

But what will happen when all the people who aren’t batshit crazy leave? Who will pay for lazy katie’s Tupperware? Come on, you’ve got to think ahead

SinglePringle · 12/07/2019 18:34

Fuck me.

If people genuinely believe the Heir to the Throne of England (and his Consort) take in the shopping and pack a picnic then the Revolution has fuck all hope.

Hook. Line. And Sinker.

Now, don’t get me wrong, Charles, William and Harry et al have no control over the family they were born into and are products of it, just like you or I.

But (I repeat) fuck me. Housekeeper?!

Hahahahaha.

More like:

Chef
Sous Chef
Comis Chef
Valet
Housekeeper
Lady’s Maid
PA x 2
Nanny x 3
Groundskeepers
Gardeners x as required
Drivers

You get my point.

Neither Kate or William are cutting triangles and packing the Baby Bell.

sqeakywheel · 12/07/2019 18:34

I thought they would have a chef.

pollypenguin01 · 12/07/2019 18:36

Wow that sounds like a shit picnic!

Where’s the slightly soggy cheese and tomato sandwiches? The dry, cut in half scotch eggs? The cheese and onion or salt and vinegar crisps? the penguins, maybe Kitkats if you’d run out? The warm pop? And if you’re lucky a 99. From the ice cream van!

DobbyTheHouseElk · 12/07/2019 18:39

Where are the photos of this Tupperware picnic? I love a cool bag picnic lunch

TSSDNCOP · 12/07/2019 18:51

Thebigball the trouble is the moany bastards never actually bloody go. They just stay and piss on everyone else’s picnic. Which again, is where Tupperware would come in very handy with its air tightness.

Sindragosan · 12/07/2019 18:52

Suggestions here for picnic boxes and water bottles for those that really need to know.

TheBigBallOfOil · 12/07/2019 18:55

They’re not moaning. They’re appalled. As well they might be.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 12/07/2019 19:04

Thank you for the link. Why the hi vis in the back of the car and what looks to be a paramedic bag? interesting presumably for first aid.
