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.

Peter Gabriel?

ahahahahahahaha

miracled · 17/08/2010 17:02

Actually Peter Gabriel may be in the running. Didn't he once place a small ad for a lover? Sorry Jack btw!

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 17:09

did he?

I wonder what it said?

my wanky ex boss went to school with PG. He said he was a "frightful little weed"

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 17/08/2010 17:11

I'd have thought PG would go for a more spiritual type, iykwim.

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 17/08/2010 17:18

Oh oh oh! It can't be PG because that would have made him about 10 when friends of mine went to school with his DCs...
[I have no idea why I care about this btw!]

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 17/08/2010 17:19

(Thinking local now) Is it Curt Smith?

sharbie · 17/08/2010 17:19

my guess is either chas or dave

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 17/08/2010 17:21

Oh - I see he's married and living in the US. The age is right though.

TheCrackFox · 17/08/2010 17:25

For Heaven's sake! Somebody has to know.

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 17/08/2010 17:35

47-ish is very young to have been in a prog rock band, surely?

Is she fibbing (as suggested previously) about his youthfulness?

PosieParker · 17/08/2010 17:38

Peter Gabriel lives in Bath, so not too far from her tiny hovel!!

miracled · 17/08/2010 17:42

Jim Kerr has a hotel in Sicily...

is it pete doherty? he looks her type (manky and old)

MintyBadger · 17/08/2010 17:48

ROFL at the Rickrolling downthread Grin

HeavenForfend · 17/08/2010 17:49

I think it's Shaun Ryder or Bez from Happy Mondays.

TheCrackFox · 17/08/2010 17:58

Jim Kerr is 51 but I don't think she has been totally truthful about his age.

Jim Kerr has form for high maintenance wives (Patsy Kensitt) and he likes animal lovers too (Chrisie Hynde)with odd hair (again Chrisie Hynde). He seems a pretty good contender to me.

clam · 17/08/2010 18:03

Ah, but she's 51. And said he was her age. But then botched the lie by saying he was 47ish.

Yeah, Jim Kerr gets my vote. Especially as there's a resemblance between her and Chrissie Hynde.

Would he wear a Mickey Mouse T-shirt though?

ValiumSingleton · 17/08/2010 18:10

She's not fifty one yet. Not til September. I am surprised I know this. Confused

surreygirl · 17/08/2010 18:10

Mike Oldfield? or someone from Genesis?

SwansEatQuince · 17/08/2010 18:38

Robert Plant?

Donovan?

miracled · 17/08/2010 18:54

Aha! Jim Kerr has a house in Nice, no word on a cheese fondness though.

It must be Jim Kerr! Yes, to a mickey mouse t-shirt. Bet it's a retro one

Hasn't he got a brother called Juan?
