Year: 2007

Hi folks, Winter’s drawing in eh? The nights are getting dark and blimey has it been cold in the mornings. Still, truth be told, I actually prefer the autumn. To start with it’s not baking hot and if you’re lucky, the weather’s just right for a spot of walking (or biking). If you’re cold you can always warm up with a good cup of tea, coffee or hot choccy. Then there’s the whole run up to Xmas thing going on… and I don’t just mean the party outfits either. 🙂 Last weekend I caught a programme on Channel 4’s upcoming 25th birthday. To be honest, it seems like C4 has pretty much always been there. I do remember the first […]

Hey-ya, Hooray, it’s the weekend. Blimey, it doesn’t seem five minutes since I was last at this keyboard emptying my head into Blogger. It’s been a strange old week. Firstly, I’ve been out and about (through work, sadly not socially) which in some ways was great. I got out of the office and got to stretch my legs. The downside was there was a bit of travel involved which meant a few long days. Still, as I said, it’s good to get out. I got a spot of shopping done too. I managed to find a nice coat seeing as the nights are drawing in. I had a choice between a red double breasted number and a longer greenish more […]

Howdy partners, Good week? I hope so. It’s been another frantic week. Still, everyone’s alive and we’re all in good nick. I had a little windfall the other day. A vendor (no names) sent me some vouchers after I’d completed a couple of their on-line questionnaires. A couple of quids worth of vouchers to spend on the high street can’t be bad. Something for Mrs Jones and something for me. Good stuff. Apologies to those of you who like their Jones Diary in small chunks because I’m back to the Friday night braindump. Sheesh. Time: family, work and hobbies. Discuss. 🙂 A moment of clarity? The other day I was out of town – again on business (shucks) – and […]

Hey Cool Cats, How’s tricks? Blimey what a storming night the party was the other night! Given that we had so many birthdays this month, the group decided on having a bit of a do (as they say locally). The theme was Blitz & Glitz – so cue 40s swing tunes and a bit of Glenn Miller. I’d thought about getting a 40s outfit together but really I didn’t have anything that was that suitable. In the end, I opted for my old (90s) red party dress, the trusted black lacy cardy (looks better than it sounds) and my dancing shoes. Sandi & co had provided a very cool looking birthday cake – complete with pink heels. That cake, not Sandi that is. That […]

Hiya, How’s you? Good I hope. Me? Oh, I’m good…. Glad it’s the weekend that’s for sure. This week has gone by in a flash. I’m pretty sure I can remember Monday and after that it’s a blur of events. So, what’s been going off? To start with, I got a year older… at least physically. That was nice. 🙂 Jelly, ice-cream and a sing-song around a cake. All good stuff. Cards, family time and some lovely presents. My t-powers [/irony] seem to be building back up, so I did what most trans folk do: I went shopping. I managed to find two new pairs of fabby new heels – although I’ve yet to give them a road test (Ed: […]

The summer sun slips into an early bed, the chill autumn evening replacing it. With the darkness, desires and thoughts creep into the minds of men. Thoughts and wants alien to their brothers. They begin to need. To want. Stealing themselves they find the cupboard and pull back the door. The items of their obsession peak out, tantalising; promising of times away from the normal world. Welcome, to the unreal world of the transvestite. No-one can be told what it is to be trans, they must experience it for themselves. 🙂 [ Lyric from Rage Against the Machine’s Wake Up.]
