I have just found it and so rushed back to comment - but DorrisMorris got their first.

Oh Bellagio, someone has red arrowed you. I have green arrowed you back to counteract.

I've put my response on there too and green arrowed Bellagio/Sarah/Andrew as he was in the red again (Liz must be on her Blackberry again).

Mine is there too but somebody - I wonder who - is red arrowing all the comments faster than I can green arrow them !

Mines there. Everything seems green at the moment - apart from 'scouse girl' and her supportive message wishing Liz happyness with 'we all know who'

I wonder have I missed out on a major life experience? Nobody has ever forced me to light an organic candle.

I green arrowed them all except 'scouse wench'.

!!! If that's the kind of thing she has to say about fashion houses it would be surprising if she is even allowed to purchase paper dolls. Or pointy scissors to cut out the garments.

Whoa! I don't quite believe this! I read Liz's "Ooooh he WUVS me" column, wrote a nasty comment, submitted it, then went back to the article to look at the comments that are already there. And lo, my comment had appeared. That's REALLY not filtering comments, and that's either a fluke or a cheering development. I thought it was remarkable enough that they were finally allowing people to comment on the Dreary, and letting the negative ones through--and they're overwhelmingly negative, if what we see represents what people send. But a lag time of 30 seconds or so in posting comments is faster 'n fast. Perhaps they have some new program that will only automatically filter out only comments that use obscene words or threaten mayhem??

I see that Sarah of Farnham is now among those sailing high in the land of green arrows. Yes! Sisterhood is powerful! So is brotherhood, in this case!

Do you think that Liz read recent comments on this thread and decided at the last moment to ask the editors to add the business about not putting the house on sale any longer? I read that and thought "Perhaps she's expecting a DS craven of harpies." Snort snort snort.

You know, if the comments are appearing that quickly Liz can stay up all night as long as people in far distant time zones are writing them, refreshing the page to see the new pieces of poison as they appear. This thought gives me a certain degree of comfort; she's been such a shrew to so many people--neighbours, people she thinks are beneath her, women, children, etc. etc. etc. that a little comeback seems only fair.

My comment is the [i]'I don’t even have time for a boyfriend, not really'' - good job he's only imaginary then, isn't it! /I] one, currently green arrowed at 13.

I green-arrowed you, Radiomaniac.
And I green-arrowed amongst others one comment which had a distinct writing style that I recognise from this very thread. That was a good one.

From her diary,
"Wow" he said.

"B*llocks" I said.

"Come and live with me" he said.

"Utter b*llocks" I said.

Ah, so Liz Jones is at the NY Fashion Week, according to her moans. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/ar...-Galliano.html

I have green arrowed the sensible comments. I wonder if the fact the house is off the market (if it is) is to avoid having the open day with potential crazed harpy viewers?

But... it's still on S&P's website - I'm going to send an email requesting a possible viewing on October 1st.

Does anyone intend splashing out £6 going to this at Henley Literary Festival ? I'm too far away! She is on Oct 2nd at 2.30 and the write up says :
Through her columns in the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday Liz has become one of the country's best-known journalists. Never short of an opinion or a cutting comment, she details her innermost thoughts and has even shared her diary of a face-lift. Fearless and frank she follows in the great tradition of female Fleet Street columnists telling it just like it is, not least in her books Liz Jones's Diary: How One Single Girl Got Married and The Exmoor Files: How I Lost A Husband And Found Rural Bliss. Together with fellow columnist Lucy Cavendish, she reveals how they go about their work and whether they ever regret anything they have written.

Sooooooooooooo tempting... love to stand up and ask how she felt when she wrote something that was later proven to be untrue.

As a long-time horse owner, I wonder how she can spend quite so much time mucking out, especially if the horses are turned out at least during the day, and how (as has been queried in the comments) she manages to get chapped thighs from soaking hay. The latter makes the mind boggle.

A note on selling houses: it is possible to achieve this without lighting a single candle, baking bread, or painting everything in tasteful neutral colours as advised by anyone who has an opinion on the matter. Ok, my last house wasn't on the market for over a million (I wish), but it sold in a couple of weeks. I'm so sad to hear Liz is tired of lighting all those candles - perhaps she should stop wasting her time and money (I didn't think she had any? But she must have if she can afford to take said house off the market).

I can't be bothered to make my own comment on the Dreary, but I've green arrowed some.

I love the assumption that those who aren't interested in fashion must be sloppy. Are we supposed to feel sorry for the poor Virgin (it's always useful to know which airline she uses, isn't it?) check-in girl who is not au fait with expensive shoe brands?

She did make one sensible comment, though, on the subject of John Galliano not being able to speak French after so long in Paris. But it got a bit lost in the rest of the dross.

All sensible comments on the DM website now green arrowed - including Sarah from Farnham

Just discovered that I can green arrow my own comment. That puts me second in 'best rated' - one ahead of Bellagio.

Biff! Bam!! POW!!!......ouch
Can only keep adding green arrows to the Dreary comments as everything's already been said (and very well too).

At worst Strutt & Parker/LJ will reschedule the open day in anticipation of the negativity dying down. But yes, agree that the property is def still for sale..

(Not so wild) guess: LJ would produce an ear trumpet* or become overwhelmed by her natural 'shyness'.
(*not mocking hearing problems - just recollecting LJ's reaction to being asked a tough question at a.n.other literary festival )

Agree totally. She can only dish it out in print. She either isn't sharp enough to come up with an answer when put on the spot or isn't brave enough to be that offensive in person. Surely, if you missed a question you would just ask the person to repeat it - even people with no hearing problems do that. If your hearing is really that bad why would you take part in a debate at a festival? Also, why wouldn't you wear a hearing aid (they're free on the NHS and with her long hair you wouldn't see it). I worked in a large office where there were 6 deaf people and, with one notable exception, they all 'got on with life' and never used their deafness as an excuse (two of them could hear with aids but the others had no hearing and no speech at all).

Would Liz demean herself so far as to wear an NHS hearing aid? We all know her opinion of the NHS.

Ha - I've just looked and my comment 2nd now just above Bellagio - is that you on top?

I also commented on the John Galliano article but that one is moderated and they binned it!
