Final Blog Post.

I started this blog because I didn’t know what to do. I had just left work,  for the first time since my daughter was born, I was at home with her. I had never put pen to paper before in my life. I didn’t think anyone would read it. When I started keeping this blog, I didn’t realise life was going to get quite so tough, and I certainly didn’t realise I would get so much out of it.

Rachel is at school and my life has moved to a new chapter. New business, new house, and I get to return to the world.

This blog feels like it’s done.

Thankyou to the many thousands of you that took the time to read it. Thank you for the comments, the discussions, the guest posts, the commissions, and for being very kind about the commas. Most of you.

Take care.

PS- you know I’ll probably start another one as soon as I have time, right?

Well…We handled that well….

Yet another blogger’s thoughts on William Hague. Brief.

Guido Fawkes. Guido Fawkes does a certain type of blogging. It isn’t a site I enjoy. But he does what he does, and it is slightly weird that  this is somehow worse than the rest of the vileness on there. It isn’t. Bloggers like Guido serve a purpose.

Christopher Myers- why has he lost his job exactly?

William Hague’s sexuality: Who gives a toss? It is bad enough that men who look and sound like that actually have sex. I don’t really see how their choice of partner is anyone’s business. I certainly don’t want to think about it for prolongued periods of time.

The media obsession with Hague’s sexuality. Andy Coulson barely makes the front page, yet I now know where William Hague buys his baseball caps.  Hmm.

Memo to media. THe reason ‘outing’ fell out of favour, is because it is homophobic shit. Most people think it’s shitty. Dressing it up as an expenses/staff costs scandal, does not stop it being shitty.

NB Additional Memo to David Laws- Chief Secretary to Treasury being asked to resign after defrauding the taxpayer of £40k is not homophobia, however much you spin it to be so.

And finally…

If my husband  used my grief  as political capital to deflect attention from rumours about his sexuality. I would render his sexuality an irrelevance. I would fucking kill him.

Fertility is evidence of heterosexuality now? Eh?

PS. Christopher Myers is quite hot in a weird way.
