I am probably never going to go on holiay to Papua New Guinea.

Rod Liddle is an arsewipe.

Do not need to look at adverts for 2.4 million ound gaffs in Putney. Likewise am not in the market for a second home in Zermatt.

I can't afford the shoes and think that Natalie Hartley looks like a lazy-eyed scrubber whatever she happens to be wearing that week.

Am not in the market for 6 figure sum job running a council somewhere.

Am not going to watch sadie Frost in her new theatrical appearance.

Do not frequent the same restayurants as AA Gill.

Sunday Times has absolutely no relation to my life at all. Why do I love it so much and devour it every week?

I really like AA Gill.

To be honest his restaurant review today was really thoughtful and kind. I usually prefer it when he slags off somewhere and says food tastes like bin juice etc.

Jeez! What have I ever done to you TheElephant? Why so nasty? You dont know me from Adam.

Grateful for the advice re: parking Daisy, hf and Getorf - much appreciated. Think I might give it a try.

TheElephant · 07/02/2010 23:06

ooh yes party season

I love 'Jeans for every shape'..."every shape" meaning either long legs, no hips, tiny waist or straight up and down.

Never denim for fat arse, short legs and muffin top. No. Never that.

FallenMadonna - agree. PLEASE can you shut up about Esther, yes we know you have found some daft bint silly enough to marry you.

Giles - you are not as funny/clever as your father was. Stop trying.

I do not like Daisy Waugh's pinched face looking at me however. She I can do without.

Today in Style - leather shorts. The cornerstone of any normal woman's wardrobe.

how to survive the party season
really if you ahve to survive it just DONT go to the parties

Bobbiewickham · 07/02/2010 23:09

Party season my arse.

Have been to two Christmas parties in the last fifteen years. Both shit.

It's eating your own weight in crap chocolates and sitting on the sofa for so long you start to meld into it season, if we're honest.

They should do a spread on sequinned slankets.

TheElephant · 07/02/2010 23:10

i felt i was IN the sunday times when i went to 4 in four days this year

it has taken me 40 years to get that far and tbh it wasnt enjoyable.

Bobbiewickham · 07/02/2010 23:11

Do you know, you do get sucked in, though, don't you?

I found myself musing over the possibility of leather shorts.

In reality, would look like something from DFS had come to life.

TheElephant · 07/02/2010 23:11

lol
they might look nice inlunnon
everywhere else youd be asked how much for a blow job

Yes and recipes for canapes.

I am actially secretly thankful that I do not need recipes for canapes. Mine is a strictly tortilla chips and olives kind of life.

Elephnat perhaps you could have a look at said leather shorts to wear to work

Actually Kate Moss + leather shorts, opaques, high high heels, blazer + very nice.

But that's Kate Moss. I think I would get laughed out of Gloucester if I wore that.

Thanks - apology accepted and I promise never to use the word again - wasnt being pretentious - just seemed like the right word at the time.

I cant identify with all the expensive stuff in there but I do like to read and learn from other people's writing. Would be my dream job.

TheElephant · 07/02/2010 23:14

yep four in four days
each one was spent steeling myself for not getting too drunk
and endless exoliating of" must have party make up"
i tell you glitter gets everywhere

Bobbiewickham · 07/02/2010 23:15

Quite funny article on being a cool auntie this week. Apparently buying lots of expensive presents is key.

No shit.

All right, wear your chinos and high heels to work.

But if a bunch of 14 year olds say 'we like your clothes today miss' in sly tones, well don't say you weren't warned
