as to the identity of Liz Jones mystery rock star lover? Apologies if I am repeating a thread but just read today's 'wingefest' and can't believe its anything other than a work of fiction.

UnquietDad · 17/08/2010 14:32

I was going to say Chris de Burgh, damn! Grin

My guesses, in sort-of ascending order of likelihood:

Marilyn Manson

Stevie Wonder (for the obvious reason)

Jedward

Paul Heaton Out Of The Beautiful South

Dave Gilmour

Bernard Butler

Peter "Hooky" Hook

EldritchCleavage · 17/08/2010 14:32

Can't be Daltrey, surely? He loves fishing which would hardly fit in with Liz's animal rights stand-point.

EldritchCleavage · 17/08/2010 14:33

Vair good, oneof.

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 14:38

seriously though- can you imagine someone actually reading her columns (she does say he's read her) and thinking "cor- she sounds great! I have to engineer a meeting"

[not being nasty just puzzled at the wondrous diversity that is Human Nature emoticon]

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 14:39

hahahahahaha @ Hooky

AllarmBells · 17/08/2010 14:52

LOL sue!

Fab suggestions UnQD. You know, Paul Heaton did come into my mind at one point. Did anyone see that "documentary" about him some years ago? He had very very long fingernails and collected crisp packets. I kid you not.

Dave Gilmour...ooh very good.

Rick Wakeman is feeling more and more right. Pete Waterman? Mr Stock?

I don't think we should get hung up on age 47, LJ has long been untruthful about her own age. More like, he's a few years younger than she is.

UnquietDad · 17/08/2010 14:58

I still think it's Jedward. She has just added their ages together.

It'll be a sleazebucket living off of adverstising royalites. Come to think of it I once got a taxi driven by Robin Sarstedt, perhaps his resistance is low?

err Dave Gilmour is 64

UnquietDad · 17/08/2010 15:30

David van Day? Maybe the burger van isn't making a profit any more.

thecatatemygymsuit · 17/08/2010 15:33

I wish I didn't care about this bit I do. I hope it's Julian Cope as he has annoyed me for year, or Mick Hucknall.

UnquietDad · 17/08/2010 15:38

:) at Liz going round hugging megaliths with Copey.

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 15:39
Shock

annoyed at Julian Cope???

thecatatemygymsuit · 17/08/2010 15:45

yes, annoyed, I used to like Teardrop Explodes and all but he got a bit too 'rune-y' and druidy for me. Sorry! Grin

miracled · 17/08/2010 15:45

Its someone who straddles chairs back-to-front and would appear to play guitar if this helps?

OP posts:
UnquietDad · 17/08/2010 15:48

Blimey, is it Seasick Steve?

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 15:51

oh read his book cat it's a work of staggering genius

imo Wink

roffle at Seasick Steve

MissWooWoo · 17/08/2010 15:55

Captain Sensible?

Fish?

Eddie Tenpole Tudor?

Johnny Rotten?

Dr of Dr and the Medics?

sharbie · 17/08/2010 15:57

how is it possible to do both at one miracled?

and please no no no to copey Grin

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 15:58

it has to be someone as self absorbed/obsessed/humourless as she is

my money's on that BeeGee who was in the Guardian magazine the other week. What an up himself twat he was

...tho think Eddie Tenpole could give her a run for her money MissWoo

Jah Wobble??

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 16:01

oh God I've just heard the four o'clock pips go

does that mean I've wasted a whole day on this???

[deep shame]

miracled · 17/08/2010 16:36

He only straddles the chair when he's with the 'laydees'. Its not Ed Tenpole or Sensible, they are both skint. I wouldn't look at old punks, not much money there. I'm thinking more down the Prog Rock route barf
