she's a coumnist, paid to point out things in society. Spitting bile is what the posters on this site do when they do vile stuff about her face, body and personality.

Except how many of you enjoy reading her columns to see how bad they are?

I enjoy reading her crumby columns, AdelaideGirl, mainly to check out how much 'effort' she's put in by re-hashing old stuff; ex-husband, fantasy RS's on-off 'love' for her, sister slagging, horses paws, dogs' arses, human prawn fed cats, etc. I especially like it when she goes off at a tangent and starts ranting about something only she could know what she's on about. It's amusing stuff but not, I think, in the way she probably thinks it is. There are far, far better columnists than her, but they're 'safe'. Her diatribes are of the madhouse genre and the comments they provoke usually provide even better reading, so she does serve a purpose of sorts.
When she does a spread on fashion or whatever, and is photoshopped to death in every shot, this 'shy' and silly woman offers even more ghoulish fodder for forums like this. I love it but even if they paid her five quid per article, it would still be £4.99 too much. There, I've answered for Penelope as I got sick of waiting for her reply. |

Finally got round to reading this weeks column in the mag - wow, her sister is going to be chuffed again isn't she? In the first paragraph (or two) she's mentioned how she bought her house and bought her nephew's lap top and phone consequently making them sound like right pair of spongers but I would bet my last fiver that there's alot more to it than that. Oh and she made out that they were rude by not having the TV loud enough (no one ever does apparently) so she couldn't hear the X Factor. ( I refuse to believe that this woman would be backwards in coming forwards in telling them to turn the volume up!) Then she proceeds to basically drop her nephew in it as he still has the ex-husband on Facebook so she decided to spy on him to see what he's up to now and is horrified to find a picture of a cat on his profile (such problems Liz, how DO you cope?
And she wonders why hardly any of her family talk to her? |

I finally lost it with her when her diary one awful awful week contained a plaigerised letter from her brother, detailing the sadness of her nephew's tragic death at the age of 21 followed by a harrowing account of his funeral. This is the nephew who she couldn't be arsed to go and visit, despite having recently bought a non-refundable ticket to Australia, where he lived with her sister.
The brother's letter brought me almost to tears, and then the next paragraph of the diary said (almost verbatim) "Anyway, my horse..." and started to rattle on about how one of her poorly-treated 'rescue animals' (need rescuing from her!) had something wrong with its hoof. Except she called it a "paw". She's unbelievably self-obsessed. |

I think that column was the worst ever Fatsia, I remember it well. Diabolical. She's completely self aware but she has no real awareness of other people and their problems. She says the words but you can tell she isn't feeling it - even when it comes to the death of her nephew and her sister's intense grief, to her it's just column fodder.
Once upon a time her column would be my first stop in the whole paper (and there's alot of it! Hubby buys it for the crosswords) but nowadays I'm lucky if I get round to reading it mid-week before it goes in the recycling. Yet this woman won Journalist of the Year? Bewildering

I've twigged where Jones got her inspiration from when she started churning out the Dreary - The Shining.
'All work and no play makes Liz a dull girl.' If Jack Nicholson could type hundreds of pages repeating the same thing whilst living in a cold, isolated dwelling, and still make a mint, he was obviously on to a winner. And he was round the twist too. |

Yes, sunstone, the barman will be featured. I've got it on good authority that a sequel to the original film is planned, entitled The Whining. I haven't been able to obtain the full cast list as yet but I'm working on it.

Barman should be the local gardener who can't walk fast enough

The gardener has already won the part of Delbert Grady but he was hotly contested by Paul Dacre.

I now have visions of an elderly gentleman hunched over a hand lawn mower walking slowly down a very long corridor in a hotel, hundreds of doors either side & ghastly white & pink floral wallpaper... lizzie running around him screaming "walk faster"

Forget Lowri Turner; her days were numbered when GMTV folded. The producers of The Whining have decided the murdered twins will definitely be played by mini puppy and Grace Kelly. Instead of them lying in a pool of blood after Mr. Grady has hacked them up, Danny will discover the girls/dogs prostrate in a pool of stress wee that hopefully LJ will skid in and bang her head on the floor. Enough said.

don't want to keep on .but what the heck is stress wee in pets?
It sounds like anxiety and a bad thing, My best friend does it when she coughs but says it is because she has had four children, but that is a little leak I think? ![]() I have always had cats ( albeit one at a time ) and having a litter tray ,have had few accidents, |
