She was an expert though Stretchy

I reckon it will be a boy. They're so keen for it, they've probably had microsort inSpain.

fishie · 22/09/2008 20:27

shouldn't this be in sleb twittery topic?

they are both a bit bottom clenching.

DarrellRivers · 22/09/2008 20:28

Been there with the Beckhams (has she given up her idea of a daughter ?, the sleb mag covers at the supermarket seem to have gone silent on VB ?preg shock]

Piffle · 22/09/2008 20:28

this should be in the new sleb twaddle section...

jamie cooks better food than Gordon, IMO.

that's what would swing it for me.

gordon also looks like the type that would get arsey if you put on any weight or that, whereas jamie would just tuck right in next to you.

i'd prefer jamie .

I once had a saucy dream with GR in it, very disturbing indeed.

Dp has never let me forget it. But I'm not sure what possessed me to tell him in the first place.
Obviously there was a need for a confessional!!!

PuzzleRocks · 23/09/2008 08:08

I used to work with a guy whose wife was once engaged to GR and have it on good authority that he is (whispers) massive. .

georgimama · 23/09/2008 09:39

I'd pass on both for Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall, there's a man who looks like he knows how to treat a woman, he's lovely.

nailpolish · 23/09/2008 09:46

i think its ok to wanta boy after 2 girls or whatever

but its NOT ok to talk publicly about it

what if they have a girl? are folks gonna say "oh dear thats a shame"

ffs!

and teh fact that she is telling all that "it took a while to get pg"

BARF - i do not want to know that

squeaver · 23/09/2008 09:47

I'm very much looking forward to her next book. I'm sure it will be enlightening. After all, no one in the whole world's ever had 3 children before, have they?

She'll have to trade in the convertible mini now.

expatinscotland · 23/09/2008 09:48

Oh, Tana Ramseys' gone public long ago about the IVF she needed because Gordon shoots blanks.

PuzzleRocks · 23/09/2008 09:48

I second Hugh, I have a thing about men with curls.

expatinscotland · 23/09/2008 09:52

I'll bet they spun the sperm to get a baby boy.

Probably went to Europe and had that gender selection thingy done.

MadameCastafiore · 23/09/2008 09:52

Bleugh - bet JO is a very sloppy kisser that tongue looks just way too mahoosive to keep under control - I would be adopting rather than having to sleep with him big house or no big house!

Valentine Warner on the other hand seems quite filthy in 'What to Eat Now' - make you feel as though he would eat raw oysters from your navel whilst telling you how georgeous you are! (Not mine though as they would slide off the rolls of fat but he even looks like a guy who would grab it and wobble it and lose control!)

Cough Cough - just got to go an cool down!

georgimama · 23/09/2008 09:54

Actually nailpolish, I found her book "Minus 9 to 1" really helpful when I was desperately trying to get pregnant, with similar problems to hers. I don't see what you see wrong with her talking about her experiences - she doesn't pretend to be medically qualified,in fact the book explicitly states that it is a personal memoir and nothing more and should not be taken as medical fact. I found knowing that someone else, even someone famous, had been there too very helpful and comforting.

nailpolish · 23/09/2008 10:30

i didnt say anythinga bout her books

chipmonkey · 23/09/2008 11:12

Gender selection is now illegal in Europe, you have to go to the US and pay lots of money to rich doctors.

kittywise · 23/09/2008 12:29

jamie Oliver is the human equivalent of a st. bernard (blegh)

mrsshackleton · 23/09/2008 13:33

kitty
What is wrong with St Bernards
They are my dream dogs - haven't you seen Beethoven? Loyal,cuddly and cute
BTW have met Jamie O a few times and he is the nicest man in the world. GRamsay, oth, who I've also met is king twat of twatiffer.

Kathyis6incheshigh · 23/09/2008 13:36

Cmon Georgimama, I bet you any money Hugh leaves the kitchen in a mess because he is used to having servants to clear it up all.

MadameCastafiore · 23/09/2008 13:40

But Gordy would come home chuck you up against the fridge and give you a right good rodgering and then mix you a double G&T, Jamie would come in and shake those jowly jowls at you and cover you in spittle first! [pukey emoticon!)

georgimama · 23/09/2008 13:41

That's fine, as long as he brings the servants with him. Are you suggesting he didn't actually live in that tiny little cottage by the river?
