Someone sent me the article this morning....she so has ish-oos, doesn't she?

drowninginclutter · 04/06/2009 20:35

She took it hard, didn't she? Wasn't she complaining in the Times about the evil mumsnetters as well?

This article is funny

I like the way it's right next to the following article:

"Amanda Holden's Got Talent! For getting away (just about) with outrageously OTT outfits from the Dame Edna school of fashion" By Liz Jones

ho-bloody-ho

Of course it might have helped if her original article didn't appear under the headline: "The Breast is Best Gestapo"

Oh God but she hates us because of the Claire Verity thing doesn't she? I knew there was something else behind it...

Meglet · 04/06/2009 20:42

so we're not on her xmas card list this year then.

hunkermunker · 04/06/2009 20:47

I think we should be really nice about her. Wrong-foot her, so to speak.

I hear she's got enviably luxuriant armpit hair, for instance - lucky woman.

Rhubarb · 04/06/2009 20:58

Sorry, who is she? Oh, a writer for the Daily Mail I see! Of course they always strive for justice and fairness don't they? They never slag off whole sections of the community. I'm impressed she knows how to use the internet!
