    Hi Becky,I was sort of making a joke .:)

    As a similar age to our Lizzie ,I have no clue what "loon pants" are,and have no Inclination to google. ( I was a bit of a Northern Soulie back then).She mentions them all the time though.

    She sure will have some story,but it will involve her virginal love for Cassidy,Davy Jones or whoever:yawn:.

    It will be the fault of foolish girls who aren't as smart as Liz.:mad::mad:

    Loon pants. Just trousers with huge bell bottoms laring out from the knee really.
    Could be denim as well as fabric like these.

    Horrid aren't they, but I bet Lizard thought she looked the dog's whatsits in hers. :D

    I thought so, and agree that -as we speak- LJ is probably tip-tapping away on yet another 'all men are beasts' screed :rolleyes:. Btw: welcome to the thread :)

    My loon pants were one-coloured. Yes, I wore them, but I wouldn't have been seen dead in those pictured! I left the colourful part to the smocks I wore over them.

    Nice to see democracy in action on the Liz Jones Appreciation group on Facebook - the mod (are they called that on there?) has removed all the anti-Liz posts! :eek: There's not an awful lot left though ..... :D

    I see today that Liz is trying to show empathy for the poor people in Haiti.
    It still ends up all about her though, (we get treated to lots of shots of the denim micro shorts and designer biker boots.)
    Particularly impressive was telling the local witch doctor how her life was soo unlucky:rolleyes:

    ...and she didn't even check whether the 'potion' he gave (sold?) her was vegan or anything! :rolleyes:
    I particularly liked this comment:
    'Haiti is not all about devastation and hand-outs, but also about' ... You?

    Even more hilarious was her tale of getting sick. I know it's wicked to mock the afflicted, but in her case I'll make an exception.:D
    And is there anything, really, in the power of voodoo, apart from gloriously colourful symbols sewn on to flags and etched in wood and tin? That evening, after my visit to see the priest, I did as I was bidden and slathered my body in the oil before slipping into my enormous bed, fans whirring above my head. During the night I was more violently ill than I have ever been in my life.
    I threw up and by morning, my room and bathroom looked as though there had been another earthquake. I could not move, nor sip water. The hotel had to call an emergency physician to tend to my raging fever. It could have been the oil, it could have been the rice and veg I had eaten the night before.

    She probably would call out a doctor for an upset tummy - even amongst the deprivation of Haiti it's all about MeMeMe, don'tcha know?
    And I think the correct terminology is "buttery soft leather"! :D

    Presumably, the part of the ceremony where the Witchdoctor mentioned sticking pins in a wax dolly was 'lost in translation'. [And haven't we previously speculated that the FRS could be a Zombie ?] ;).. The Haitian article wasn't quite as Liz-centred as her Somalian one - though what was going on with the 'off the shoulder' pose with the quilt, I don't know... Seriously: I hope that the project mentioned is successful.

    The long-suffering hotel staff would probably recommend a very nice chap called 'Papa Doc' ... [OK - getting my coat right now]

    LJ -vs- India: Harpy history . Imho, India Knight's original tweet - in response to digs LJ made in the first place - would not have you clutching your sides with laughter, etc, - it's pretty nasty even by our standards...But puleeeze! LJ is not exactly Mother Theresa, herself. All today's complaint boils down to is loving to 'dish it out' but being completely unable to take it. Though I did have a good old rotf at the idea of a journalist learning of insults by another via a -highly convenient- 'little old lady' taking the trouble to send in the offending page via snail mail... Even I managed to see the original Tweet despite remaining phobic about setting up an account [ - sorry again, Facebook group..:o:o].
