I’m 35 years young and based in the UK. As well as blogging, doing a few part-time jobs and being a bit of a loony, I’m a freelance writer who writes predominantly on queer-related topics.

Smoking is killing LGBT’s in large numbers….
A study soon to come out in the United States shows that the percentage of smokers among gay men and lesbians is far higher than that of their heterosexual counterparts. 37% of lesbians in the United States light up as compared to 18% of straight w...
Howdy y’all
Howdy y’all. It’s been too long hasn’t it? My sincerest and unreserved apologies for not getting round to all you guys. I could say life got in the way but that’s a very lame excuse. I could say it’s because I di...
Come out come out…
I came out today to my two closest straight friends and they took it in their stride and of course as is so often the case, they already knew. So yeah, we were talking about something or other and one of them happened to mentioned someone who looked ...
The Power of Friendship….
Wikipedia lists friendship as “a co-operative and supportive behavior between two or more people. In this sense, the term connotes a relationship which involves mutual knowledge, esteem, and affection and respect along with a degree of renderin...
Strange…
Today started off like any other. It was warm and sunny outside. A friend had called up to ask if he could come over and while he was setting off, I nipped in the bath and generally spruced myself up. I knew he was going to be there shortly, so bo...
Realisations….

One lump or two?
Quite a few people now either know I’m a poofter or heavily suspect it. When going to buy coffee the other day I bumped into someone I knew (who knows about me) who was also looking to get themselves a cup so we headed over to the nearest Cos...
Words don’t come easy…
Words. Letters added together to form clumps of meaning. When I was questioning whether I might be bisexual I found not hostility exactly but noticeable resistance from some people who identified as gay. Some people since then have quite simply...
Days go by…
Today I went into town to see a friend and we encountered one of the drunkest guys we’ve ever seen. I don’t know how he was able to stand let alone manage (almost incoherently at times) to string a sentence together. He was short and ...
Domesticitea!!!
I’ve been getting all domestic lately and I’m loving it!!!! Washing the bath out after I’ve used it, putting the vacuum around, doing the washing (and wiping) up and of course, working our new fangled washing machine has never bee...
