Month: November 2009

Hi, The Boots Make Over evening has been and gone. Dare I say it was a resounding success? I must confess that I was a little worried because I didn’t want to let anyone down. Firstly, there’s the group itself: you’re never 100% sure that a visitor will make it (sudden emergencies etc). On the flip side of that, there’s the group: would enough people be coming to make it worth Boots’s time? I managed to get to the centre early and I was just getting changed when a taxi rolled up. Sh**, I hadn’t done my face! Anyway, clothes and wig on, I nipped downstairs, got to the door and… no-one was there. Hmmm. How odd. I thought I […]

Hiya, Well, I can stare at the small and empty white window no more. I feel that if I don’t put something – anything! – in here, Friday will pass without a post. It is true that the world will keep on turning and society will not fail due to me missing this one. But… It’s a personal deadline. I want to do this and I take (and make) the time to do something.

Hiya, It’s been an odd sort of week this week. I’ve had a lot of time off – not due to sickness (thankfully) – but just to get stuff done.

Some to look after the kids, some to sort the house out (we’re having some decorating done) and also… a bit of time out and about. Sorting the house out took ages – honestly, I’ll be glad to go back to work for a rest. 🙂 I don’t think I’d fancy being a house husband, although the idea of […]

Hiya, I’m looking at this little white box that’s the Blogger New Post window. I look at it. It looks back at me. Well, inasmuch that an empty form box can look back. Hmmm…. It’s been quiet this week. Well, actually it’s been quiet on the trans front for the most part. The flurry of activity has been in the non-trans area of my life. A kid’s Halloween party: that was top stuff and very good to see Wee Man and Little Miss enjoying themselves so much. We’ve had the whoosh, boom and bang of November the 5th. That’s Bonfire Night to those of you outside the UK. It’s the only time when we Brits are allowed to play with […]
