“Open up your eyes,
You can’t turn back the tide.”

Hi, Another weekly post eh? 😉 Funny, I had a collection of things I wanted to talk about, yet now, as I sit here typing, they’ve all scurried away to hide within the proverbial shadows. (Ed: temporal time distortion approaching team…. Yes, Lynn did write this bit earlier 😉 ) If I look to my right and out of the window, I can see rolling hills, the near empty branches of trees and some rather bushy connifers. The sun’s spilling out a warm golden light to the day and yet when I track up to the sky, it seems cold. Other than the exercise of description and a push to get me to actually type something, the above seems fairly indicative […]

“You known I can’t believe it,
when I hear that you won’t see me.”

Hi, This time around it’s a quiet week and as I’ve said before, quiet isn’t necessarily bad. Sure, I don’t mind watching a bit of drama second hand – so books or film – but experiencing it first hand isn’t always quite so welcome. 🙂 Midweek Mid week I booked an afternoon off to do a spot of shopping. Not the trans stuff, but the more mundane things such as new bloke clothes. My trainers have reached optimum comfort, which in real terms, means they are in danger of dropping to pieces when I least expect them too. I also kept my eye out for some Xmas gifts and when you spot something that’s just right, it can pay to […]

“Because the plot thickens every day,
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin’ away,
But I know, there’s a picture beneath”

Oh and a brief apology as this week’s entry is rather lengthy. The Trans Factor Channel Four recently started a new series called My Transsexual Summer. I guess that’s following the idea of X number of folk of a particular type, get them under one roof and film them. There was a show earlier in the year called Seven Dwarves which featured – wait for it, wait for it – a number of vertically challenged people who shared a house. AFAIK there wasn’t a bird from a glass coffin who did […]

“T.G.I.F”

Hi, Not so long ago, the conversation at a Chams do swung around to blogging. I think it may be been Rebbecca who asked: when do you find time to write? The short answer is as and when. Of course, being a blogger, a short answer strictly won’t do…. 🙂 Since my teen years, I’d frequently have a scrap of paper/notebook and obligatory pen too. Back then, I’d get ideas for a story, a joke (sometimes slight amusing) or an idea for a computer game or RPG. Now, the ideas tend to be for a blog post or a short story. An item of conversation or unusual circumstance will occur and a small invisible light bulb (Ed: no, I don’t […]
