New thread!

We are elevators apparently

Sussex Whine made from sour grapes. You lot are funny.
I wonder what sort of cocktails she will be flogging?

Hmm strongly disagree with you about Lulu !!

Very appropriate!
The Liar's Cocktail contains gin and vermouth..so they say..

Sour Grapes would actually be a good title for a wine label for them - it would show they can laugh at themselves. And would also be very memorable - in the same way that “Spare” was a genius title for Harry’s autobiography.

Really? She must have some sort of following, do the products not sell?

I have never seen anyone defending Andrew on MN . Never . And rightly so .

Don’t want to derail but some personal experience which massively changed my opinion . I also have a relative in the entertainment business who had a difficult experience with her .
Derail over .

They also have the amazing Kris Jenner behind them

In all of my years I’ve never known her to have much of a good reputation.

Yes but the two couples above them - JLo & Ben and Will & Jada - have famous for years, had multiple successes and made fortunes. They got to the top of the tree. M & H have been around for fifteen minutes in comparison and have had no successes and the American public are already sick of them. They are done.

Latest figures on the YT sneak peak aren't looking great

Anyhoo - just making a point about selling on QVC.

Spoke to soon ! Apparently voting was still open !
Harry and Meghan won ! 🏆

I'm in Wiltshire too. Walled garden which oddly is colder than everywhere else! Back to topic the Mail (,,I know, I know) says MM is adding wine to her list of products

They are a success 💪! Well, in a way...

Nah cross post

@RecoIIectionsMayVary it's a Xiaomi one, my husband is a total tech geek so most things we have are much higher spec than what we need!

Random thought - if those of you with bee friendly gardens are indeed elevators, in the UK should you be known as lifts?

DD gave me a wooden spoon as a mothers day present a few (6, 7?) years ago. I was delighted, because a couple of weeks earlier had been moaning about not having enough wooden spoons.

I haven't needed another one since.

Goodness yes!

My first ever crush, when I was in my mid teens and was allowed to stay up and watch Reilly Ace of Spies. Everyone else was into A-Ha...

Led me to history GCSE, A-level, and since got a history degree as a mature student. Still get the shivers if I hear the theme tune!

When I've looked at Ms Instagram I've noticed that the people following her who I follow (they show you this) are all influencers. Suggesting it's a bit of a pyramid marketing thing going on.

I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing?

On the one hand it suggests not many real people are interested in her content.

On the other hand it suggests there may be a ready and waiting support marketing structure to kick in?

Although I'd imagine other influencers would want to know how popular or successful she is going to be before boosting her content or products?

They don't want to alienate their own base.

For reference these are fashion lifestyle type influencers aimed at middle aged women.

They'd piss me off if they started boosting MM.

I've been trying to date my wooden spoons and honestly, they are so old I can't! I did get a friend one with Gordon Ramsay (she loves him) shouting on it for Christmas as a joke present, but it was very cheap and actually, how fancy does a wooden spoon need to be? Fortunes are not to be made from such things.

(PS Reilly was fabulous)

When you see photos of the real Reilly it is such a let down 😂

@Spectre8

"Who is arguing? That mumsnetter a cuses me of derailing but oh look a whole discussion on bees and bee loving plants has taken place and noone accuses those people of derailing. Just me!

Let's only pick on Spectre..."

You used to have quite feisty posts - now you just go on and on about how you are picked on . It's like you've been taken over by aliens 👽. What's going on ?

Instead of going the vineyard / wine route which is likely a crowded market, she might consider partnering up with farms to launch a Duchess potato?

It’s an essential item for many people, affordable and always need replenishing. And perhaps follow on with a really tasty cheese + potato pie collab with a fast food chain (call it Humble Pie, a bit tongue in cheek, rather witty, once again appeals to lots of regular folk).

Piling up high and selling cheap can provide a sustainable income stream, more than jostling with other celebrities to sell high-end items.
