It is my job to write about an extravagant lifestyle. My professional persona and my real persona are significantly different, particularly financially.
This is clearly nonsense, and such transparent nonsense it's laughable. If her writing were fictional, and her financial details not as chronicled in the endless witterings about her extravagance, why would she be facing bankruptcy? |

Lizbott on Duchess of Cambridge, got to admit am agreeing with her today, she's quite right.
. Seems like the priorities are upside down with this new Royal, doing Vogue cover but not willing to present shamrock to the Irish Guards. Big fail

But for all any of us know (including Liz) one of the kids was ill and that's why Catherine went home? William must have agreed with her, after all, and he hates the Press quite enough to know how they would moan about it!

Is there a single sentence in today's Diary that she hasn't written a hundred times before? Blah blah hand-painted wedding invitations, Blah blah lumberjack shirt, Blah Blah £5 rose, Blah blah no lunch break Blah blah didn't get David in 1983 blah blah "Look what you didn't get" Blah blah packet meals blah blah.... Zzzzzzz
Incidentally, she mentions that she's drinking coffee as she types....but aren't hot drinks a sign of weakness? ![]() As for her other article....doesn't she realise that some men actually have happy relationships and enjoy spending time with their partners and/or families? Oh, and there's absolutely nothing admirable or virtuous about not having lunch, or not having days off, Liz! |

"Kate has sold her soul to the devil that is vanity and elitism, and those fashionistas who judge others only by their BMI." Oh, like ... YOU? You who, in the months leading up to the wedding, lamented for months on end in the DM that Kate wasn't being properly prepared for her new role in public life and her taste was too high street. Then in the next breath you complained that the US tabloid press was being too harsh on her.
Meanwhile we get a second farticle this week about how anyone who dares have a lunch break or a Bank Holiday is weak and lazy. Because writing for just one publication is a 24-hour endeavour, in between taking care of a hundred and one animals that LIZ CHOSE to have and chooses to keep despite the expense |

FFS Liz:
YOU choose to eat only one meal a day. You have/have had an eating disorder, and I'm sympathetic to that. But the fact remains it is your choice to eat only one meal a day. If you wanted to eat three, you could. No one's stopping you. Employees are legally entitled to lunch breaks. You, on the other hand, are self-employed and set your own hours. If you wanted a lunch break, you could have one. No one's stopping you doing that either. By the way, it's normal to need food and take breaks. It's part of being human, shall we say. You're not virtuously better than people who eat more or who have a break now and then. I hardly think opening emails counts as a "difficult task." Acting on them might ... Back at the farm house in the West Country she asked an interviewing journalist not to mention that her sister was living with her. But journo ignored the request. |

Yes, well done David, if you are reading. Hopefully now you can find a nice lady who is quite content with you, just as you are.

The official reason given was that Catherine will not be continuing the long traditional of a senior royal female giving out the shamrocks each year, but she will attend every now and again OWTTE. Personally I don't think it's right just knock years of tradition on the head like that, especially when it was said that Kate wanted to be at home with her family when those in our armed forces don't see their own families sometimes for months on end. Then a few short weeks later turning up as a cover girl. Poor show. Am with Lizbott here.

The photos were taken much earlier in the year, still in Winter I think. I would like presenting the shamrock to continue, but given so many historical regiments were just wiped out in the restructuring of your armed forces perhaps it may be best to let it go.

I would like to comment but I'm SO busy at the moment, conferring with an extremely talented artist to hand-paint a note to leave out for the milkman tomorrow. And then I'm SO frustrated because I put my new Conran Shop antique rose linen on the bed (realised I hadn't changed the sheets since New Year's Eve) and then the cat promptly stress-sh*tted all over the bed ... must be the nasty cheap Kit-E-Kat it had for breakfast - you see, I AM having to economise ...

The Duchess can't do right for doing wrong. Whatever she does, it's wrong, and whatever she doesn't do, it's wrong.
It's like someone in the media made a decision at some point recently, to trash her no matter what. Whether people like her or not, the media seems to be going out of its way to tear her to shreds. |

Totally agree on this. Catherine IS having a very rough ride unfairly, I suspect it's because she's not from the aristocracy. Isn't it actually better if she dresses in High Street clothes when she wants to? That must encourage sales in shops, as has the clothes she puts her kids in. Leave her alone - she has had the guts to take on an awful job and needs to get herself sorted out for her future. Do the Press want her to walk out on William and him to follow? I know they all love Harry but if he refused too, we will be left with Andrew and his ghastly daughters!
I think Liz goes on about food to remind us all she is borderline anorexic and as for having a hundred and so many animals, most of them are sheep (dunno where they are now) 2 ponies, aged dogs and ancient feral cats. Oh, and poor Prudence. |

I imagine the decision (for whatever reason) was approved by the Queen: William, who is Colonel of the Irish Guards, was present. It's not as if the Irish Guards were shunned or fobbed off with a very junior member of the Royal Family.

Poor you !!! ![]() Then I twigged !!!. what a ditz I am ha !Am sure the royal couple do have a lot of support and the Queen must sanction their decisions. But at the same time there is an unease about the number of duty events they shy away from, and you've got to remember they have child care coming out of their ears AND one grandma who stays with them a good deal. So they really are well covered to zoom off in the helicopter to perform a duty then be back home in no time. I think this is what irks folk. And I'm afraid Queenie lost me when she awarded fav son with a medal after he was papped strolling with his pedo mate Jeffrey. |

Agree about the award to Fat Andy and partly about the Cambridges, but not totally. It is the Queen who has said they can do less and bring up their children more normally - once she passes and William becomes Prince of Wales, they will have to change and I am sure they know that. Gather ye rosebuds while ye may!!
I think HM was more affected by the death of Diana than is generally realised and doesn't want to see William forced into a job he doesn't really want too early, as she herself was. Having as many potential babysitters as you want sounds great, but remember Charles hated it when he was growing up and she knows that too. Nothing beats the cuddles of Mum and Dad. |

"I have had nothing to eat all day bar a boiled egg."
This would, of course, be a vegan boiled egg. Oh... wait... |

If even 10% of what she says about David is true, he is very unpleasant in some ways, but compared with her he probably comes out the better. Please don't call me a fan again, it gives me reflux.

Wonderful comment, Vampyre!!
What I don't understand is why didn't she realise the financial state she was getting into? She's only got to read back copies of the Mail or google herself to see she has been like this for about ten years - how did she imagine a boyfriend with no money would solve it for her? If she really wanted to marry David, who not just trot off to a Register Office? You do not have to spend a fortune or even a lot of money. Is she even a little bit prepared for what will happen in 2 months, when (I assume) the keys will be taken back and the house will be auctioned? Has Nic made arrangements for herself and her horses to move? I think I'll go back to bed!! |

As for today's Dreary, taken at face value the implication is that Dave was only in it for the dosh and hols, and that now these have gone he's scarpered also. If it were true that someone "only writes the truth" we might feel sorry for her EXCEPT that she has dragged this dysfunctional text-relationship for years and she's big enough to know better. Anybody going out with someone they barely saw who they hated 90 percent of the time would have dumped them by now. I don't understand how a person could cry dire poverty one week then twitter blithely about her handpainted wedding invitations and knee pluckings the next. I also don't understand how she can still be paying Nic. |

I would have thought David could have been initially attracted by what she portrays her lifestyle as, but went off her when he found her lifestyle consisted of his being a whipping boy whenever she felt like it.
Nic may get accommodation and stabling instead of wages? |
