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.

Well what do you know? 'RS wants to go public'......How long do we reckon that'll really take to do? [hhmm]

whatkungfuthat · 10/07/2011 09:20

Its interesting that he said he's playing nearby in a few weeks (which would put it about now with the time lag on the column). Simple Minds didn't play at Glasto Hmm

katkitya · 10/07/2011 23:46

There's loads of festivals in that area though. Around this time. Arent they touring now?

whatkungfuthat · 11/07/2011 09:18

Yeah, nowhere near her though unless its already happened. They played Cheshire the weekend of Glasto and are doing Scotland and european cities next. Farm Fest has Dodgy headlining Grin

Yes i did think that Sunday's column should have had a subtitle: "In which he wants to go public, but I unselfishly persuade him not to ...."

LadyDangermouse · 11/07/2011 13:21

WHATKUNGFUTHAT SAID: "Its interesting that he said he's playing nearby in a few weeks ......"

2 possibilities:

1.(a) the column is written a month in advance so the Sunday 10 July entry would have been written in early June.

1.(b) Simple Minds played 17/06/11 - Westonbirt Arboretum, Gloucestershire

................................

  1. Robert Plant's Band of Joy as one UK gig in August at The Big Chill Festival, Eastnoor Deer Park, Ledbury, Herefordshire

................................

or

(3) option (3) is that the RS is totally fictional and Saint Liz keeps putting in vague references to get us to think it is either JK or RP etc.

katkitya · 11/07/2011 13:32

She is in Gloucestershire though or, up the road from. I don't get why we are going around in circles tbh. We are grown women!!! Why do we care so much? It's 99% jim kerr. I really want to stop thinking about this now.

secretsquirrel1 · 11/07/2011 14:30

So do I, Katkitya, but I've been sucked in......Grin

ajandjjmum · 11/07/2011 14:39

She'd obviously been reading this thread. She said he said (!!!) that he was used to woman dropping everything for him, and she didn't. Your theory was right Lady Dangermouse!

LadyDangermouse · 11/07/2011 15:34

AJANDJJMUM: She said he said (!!!) that he was used to woman dropping everything for him, and she didn't

yes well that reference would make it Robert Plant .... but a few other references La Jones has sprinkled into her columns make it more like Jim Kerr.

I have been told that both RP and JK are dating other people, but still we go round in circles ..... if it's not (1) rp and (2) not JK either there is only (3) one last option -- the R.S. is made up !!!!!!!!

See my latest blog entry:

thelawnroars.blogspot.com

(In which I could be wrong !!!!)

whatkungfuthat · 11/07/2011 15:47

Surely any rock star that has been around for a while and is that rich is used to women dropping everything though? I don't see why that would make it RP. If she is talking about getting it out in the open (and assuming he exists) we'll find out soon enough

katkitya · 11/07/2011 17:47

I was dated someone in a band past it's hay day. I can assure you they ALL want women to drop everything for them and, book their train tickets, pick up their dry cleaning, go to the pub from 11am (even if you are meant to be at work), tell them they still have it (even when they are 80's saddos), discuss every totp's appearance. I could go on. It's jk ladies and, I don't have any more room in my head to think about it!!

rshunter · 11/07/2011 22:04

To me, the conversation seems somewhat contrived, unreal, a badly written Mills and Boon, I'm afraid i do not believe one word of it.Liz has let us down, too much whittering again about the sheep and hooves, i can smell the manure from here.

Triciasbaby · 12/07/2011 13:59

I think the RS is one of The Faces (not ronny wood, he only likes girls in their 20s) the other one who was on Daybreak this morning, Liz mentioned a couple of weeks back that his band was going on tour soon, and the faces have just reformed with Mick Hucknal taking the lead singer, (no surely not the curly one) all must be stinking rich. Is he Kenny Jones???????????
They said this morning they were reforming for a laugh, I think ive cracked it ,give the girl a biscuit!!!

katkitya · 12/07/2011 16:31

Is Kenny Scottish? Is he loaded enough?

whatkungfuthat · 13/07/2011 08:14

Nah not him, happily married tory with links to polo, lives in Surrey.

katkitya · 13/07/2011 08:39

We keep coming back to jk

LadyDangermouse · 13/07/2011 10:24

KATKITYA SAID: "We keep coming back to jk"

I am starting to think this might be a possibility as well, and have just done comparison astro compatability charts for Liz Jones + Jim Kerr on my blogette:

LadyDangermouse · 14/07/2011 11:17

Well I can knock the Robert Plant theory on its head .... even if it was mainly my theory in the first place. Since starting my blog I have been contacted by email by a resident of Austin, Texas who has seen Robert Plant out in public with Patty Griffin. She also sent me this link:

Triciasbaby · 14/07/2011 20:12

I give up, I think she is just winding us all up and she is shagging the local postie!

BreatheEasier · 14/07/2011 21:37

Poor postie

whatkungfuthat · 16/07/2011 09:27

Better a single postie than that married guy (vet?) that she blatantly chased and had the cheek to write about.

katkitya · 17/07/2011 15:58

Well, by the sounds of today's she is talking about a camping festival. And she's right when she says about looking like a twat hanging around on her own. Why didn't she just ask a mate. Simple minds aren't playing any proper festivals are they? "turned on his stacked heels" prince played Hop Farm festival a couple of weeks ago!!! Ha can you imagine him putting up with her?!!

boswelloxsmith · 17/07/2011 16:01

1000 posts and we are no clearer

katkitya · 17/07/2011 22:36

If she's telling the truth about it being a three day festival it should be easy to narrow it down
