Now …quick question 🙋‍♀️….is it safe for me to pop off and cook …or will you buggers fill the thread while I’m gone? 🤔

Go for it! We won't mention the R word!

Badvocthebad · 22/10/2026 19:58

Good grief.
Over $500 for a basket with tat in?
I can't imagine that this was their game plan...and what happened to American Riviera Orchard!?
I forsee As Ever going the same way.
It's all so...icky 😬

Badvocthebad · 22/10/2026 20:00

I buy lots of vintage plates/silverware on vinted etc.
You can buy it surprisingly cheaply and it looks a hell of a lot better than M's stuff! (I'd LOVE to know where this tat is being produced...

Link here, jeff, and I see what you mean; the products come a very poor second to Meghan posing for the camera, but nothing new there

Does she have nits?

Oh that video is something else.

Quite what else I'm not sure...

Puzzledandpissedoff · 22/10/2026 20:06

I'm pretty sure there was a snafu about somebody else using the same name or logo, @Badvocthebad, and it was said that Meghan hadn't even trademarked the name in time for the launch, so it got rebranded to "As Ever" with some word salad about the new name allowing for products to be more geographically spread

Yes, the court details have shown for some months that he and Mark Dyer are registered as litigants in person.

Edited

Yes, nothing’s changed there. I think it means that neither of the Respondents have yet filed a response using a named solicitors’ firm, @bluegreygreen?

And now they’ve wangled a delay of some sort somehow.

I don’t know if Neil Sean has misunderstood the situation or not, or if he actually has new, new information.

Yes, @Badvocthebad, I have some lovely antique blue and white Worcester cups and saucers which were less expensive than Meghan’s.

Thanks for the link.

Rachel appears to be gurning at an empty room.

Has a lackey announced her?

HoldMyWine · 22/10/2026 20:10

She is such a bad actress

How can a design be a ‘signature’ when it’s never been used before.
Reminds me of the Eternal Beau China that everyone’ s mum collected in the 80s

We got a (requested) EB dinner service as a wedding gift way back when courtesy I think of the Argos catalogue.

If it's now commanding a stonking £9 per plate I'm thoroughly regretting offloading it for about £25 all in at a car boot a few years back 😥

CathyorClaire · 22/10/2026 20:16

She couldn't score the trademark rights IIRC.

ETA Puzzled beat me to it 😁

Ah, thanks but TBF it wasn't getting used hence the ditching.

Wow! Are they selling tickets for that, because I'd pay to see it.

I find it disquieting them having had no interest in national theatre, commonwealth etc patronages. I think it's because you always hoped that by doing your best to ensure your children have a great educational experiences, lots of cultural experiences, opportunities etc that will mean they grow up to be people to have lots of interests in life and who have the ability to really enjoy life and appreciate it. It's uncomfortable to think that children can have all these things and yet still grow up to be as vacuous as that pair - everything is wasted on them.

I wish I could study their childhoods and find out where it all went wrong. I know they both had dysfunctional families and trauma from mother dying/abandoning respectively. But how does that explain the vacuousness? The complete self absorbtion, lack of self awareness and not having any interest in anything remotely worthwhile or meaningful? As discussed a few days ago, probably neither of them have ever read a book other than what was required during their education. It seems like they both had parent(s) who at least tried to give them a range of experiences, travel, the arts etc and they both had private education although I'm sure Meghan's wasn't so swanky.

I’ve always thought that Meghan’s As Ever homemaking persona is an effort to recreate the childhood home she never had with Doria. I don’t think she’s a particularly cultured person, probably hung out at the mall more than anything. But she loves to portray that thoughtful, intelligent, woman of the people ideal. It’s like she once read THAT in a book & it stuck with her. As for Harry…
