That would explain how she has a six-figure salary (I remember in the past it was described as being around the £400,000 mark), and yet supposedly doesn't have any money.

What happens if the house doesn't sell at the auction?.

....So, have I got this straight: she READS her partner's private emails without his consent, PUBLISHES them in her column without his consent....and yet she thinks SHE is the one with the grievance here? Aren't there laws about publishing other people's private messages? Even if Liz is unaware of this (or knows the laws but doesn't care), surely someone at the Mail is supposed to keep on top of these things, especially in this day and age?
It's lovely that D and his ex still have a good co-parenting relationship. Goodness only knows what Liz thinks she has to carp about. ....Although as always, her view on everything is so skewed, it's hard to know what to believe. I find it hard to imagine any ex-couple really communicate with the starchy formality of those messages. "If you are not too busy, maybe we can meet for coffee."? "That is very kind of you. I know you have someone new in your life." (Besides, Liz isn't new....they've been seeing each other for years, haven't they? And anyway, didn't Liz actually meet up with the ex years ago, in a scene lifted directly from Carrie's lunch with Alexandr's ex wife in SATC?)

It is a more than a decent house for £500,000, but the prices of 'expensive' houses in the Dales (Yorkshire and Tees) are falling through the floor. There are so many for sale and they are taking years to sell. |

Of course, as I think someone mentioned a few weeks back, maybe the IVA has now morphed into bankruptcy proceedings. To be honest, I've always wondered how some high profile bankrupts, in the public eye (mentioning no names) [b]declare themselves bankrupt, leaving fuming creditors....then later, merrily set up another venture... which also goes bust, leaving fuming creditors...

That happens an awful lot and I do wish the law was tightened up to put an end to it. Also, it's worth remembering that in a personal bankruptcy the OR will claim a percentage of any disposable income after essentials are covered. For Joe Blow on £20k a year their disposable could be £100 so the OR will take 50% of that. For someone on £400k a year they will still have a lot of disposable income even if the OR takes 90% of it. |

I think her house looks pretty spartan, compared to the "before" pics (okay, it had carpet then, and that's probably not considered as chic as bare floorboards, but no curtains either). It looks not very homely, and sparsely furnished. Otherwise it's a lovely house.

It looks what I call quite 'cosy' in the 'before' pictures. But I suppose that 'cosy' would be an anathema to Liz. But she must have spent a small fortune on the place - ripping out a perfectly acceptable kitchen - then moaning that she didn't have a kitchen and having to use the one in the 'cottage' .... and then making a new kitchen in the basement. Can't remember what other 'improvement' she made - was there something about flooring?
Wonder what the place will fetch at auction. |

Oh, just looked at the details about the place on the website about the upcoming January auction. https://www.robinjessop.co.uk/auctions/
It states in part: Lawn House has been the subject of part renovation where a damp proof course, new boiler system and all the original floor boards have been beautifully restored. So the floor has been restored, whatever that means (presumably carpets taken up, original wood sanded/polished or something). But - correct me if I'm wrong - wasn't Liz bleating recently that she had sold or was selling her new central heating boiler? Along with the Vera Wang or Whatever jacket etc. etc? |

ETA - it's in this one - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/you/...tips-edge.html I told her I’ve sold everything: my Wang jacket, a Temperley slip dress, Louboutin sparkly shoes, Tod’s clutch, my desk, my Bang & Olufsen TV, Bang & Olufsen hi-fi, the spare alloys from my Mercedes: no use to me now, though I had thought of balancing them upright, sitting in the middle of them, pretending I still have a nice car. I’ve even got my boiler up for sale, as I can’t afford Flogas to feed it: it’s on for £1,000, though I was charged £4,500 to have it installed; no takers. I have just decided to sell my Vogues: every single issue since April 1978. I soon won’t have anywhere to put them, anyway. Last edited by fizzycat : 01-11-2016 at 19:39. Reason: addition |

Hi Amikolaichek
I think the boiler was mentioned as having been put on E Bay, but I would have thought the agents or whoever is responsible for the house could stop her doing that. What amazes me is why is she staying in the same area (if indeed she is), as she's going to have the same travel problems and still not going to be flush enough to buy a much better car. (Hope you are OK.) |

That's exactly what I was thinking, why stay in the area that she hates, and is miles from everywhere she needs to be. The only reason I could think of would be the horses. Forgot about the boiler story, I,ve been on my uppers loads of times, but it's never crossed my mind to sell the household boiler! |

(Hope you are OK.) Surely she hasn't flogged the Flogas boiler! I recall, from one of her earlier books, how she moaned about when she moved into the Exmoor place because the previous owners had taken just about everything normally left by reasonable sellers (hmm, wonder how true THAT is). Ah well - whoever is considering bidding in the auction for the house - I just hope that they've done their homework first and made sure a boiler is in situ. I'm OK, Jennifer_Jones - but still debating whether to do it or not ... (hip replacement). I'm quite sprightly on sticks or crutches, zipping (OK, limping) around Islington. When I'm in Upper Street, I always look out for Liz near SpaceNK or Abigail Aherne. Or that lovely foodie place Ottolenghi that I've never dared enter but I think Liz has mentioned it. |

Fizzycat,
"have her knees steamed" - so funny! (that's not an actual thing, is it? Mine are in need of attention.) |

Hi Amilokaichek
I don't know where she's going to live but she drove to Leyland (nearby) to deliver the rental agreement, so I imagine she may be renting via the agent who9 is selling, which would also explain no problems with her credit history. I don't think she has a horse now (Nic does), only 2 rescue ponies that could easily have gone to a charity. Perhaps she's staying around for Isabel, her friend, who looks after the dogs when she's away? I think the hip thing is fairly risk free nowadays, especially if you have an excellent surgeon. Thought I was going to need a surgeon on Friday - electricians left steps in situ up to roof so I tottered up to look for missing cat who came out like a cruise missile, leaving me to go one way and the steps another!! |

![]() I'm not sure knee steaming exists anywhere in the real world but as Our Liz seems to be the only person who knows about having teeth steam cleaned, the truth could be out there somewhere in LizWorld. (Being very picky here for a moment - I'm sure both dizzy ladies are referring to water vapour not steam. Steam is invisible and at the boiling point of the liquid producing it so you really wouldn't want steam in contact with any body part. Once you can see it, it's not steam any more) |

Foo-steaming sounds like some Victorian treatment for the pox.

Steaming knees? Who knows. But I'm surprised that our Liz hasn't taken up an exotic procedure that was raved about by the incredible Gwyneth Paltrow on her excruciatingly smart website 'Goop'. (NO idea why I'm signed up for Goop's newletter - I never asked to be). Anyway, Gwynnie does steaming - but not of her knees but somewhere north of the knees and not usually a place one would consider a comfortable place to steam ... read this if you dare (but with your legs crossed):

Actually, Goopy said 'A combination of infrared and mugwort steam cleanses your uterus, et al.'
She must have the filthiest of uteruses if it needs steam cleaning. I suggest a Kärcher. |

Unless Gwynnie has a fantastically unusual anatomy, what she's on about would have to be invasive to some degree. And dragging this thread back on topic (although 'procedures' are so Lizard), there are numerous photographs of her naked, including the fake tan ones, and she's certainly not the waif like physique she thinks she is and that is a good thing. |

More dangerously, a gullible actor who thinks she knows better than scientists. Mugwort steam up the uterus indeed.
Anyway yeah back to Liz Jones. I bet she's had a go at foo steaming. Probably with a kettle though, given that she's hard up. |
