Welsh. Gay. Beard. Social democrat. Middle-Aged. Frequently annoying.
The audience includes a man in head to toe leather www.imdb.com/title/tt0653...
My suspicious neck growth is gone, with my beard largely untouched. Hoorah!
Tomorrow, I have a possible cancer removed from my neck. Given the closeness of the growth to my beard, it is possible that I may lose my beard. I *hope* that does not happen, but *just in case* here is a memento of the night before :-) Goatees are coming back, anyway...
"Gentlemen, this is democracy manifest!", "What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?"
Dennis Noel Kavanagh is prominent in anti-transgender, gender-critical networks, in the UK, closely associated with Sex Matters and a director of the Gay Men's Network, which claims to fight 'homophobia in all its forms' This is what he had to say about London's LGBTQ Pride event, last Saturday.
Tonight's dinner Pasta, cherry tomato, black olive, basil and spring onion salad, in a sun-dried tomato & garlic vinaigrette
I see that The Spectator is promoting the the anti-trans activist Dennis Kavanagh, as some sort of 'older statesman' of gay activism. I have been on social media long enough to remember what he said about HIV/AIDS
The crowd was happy (apart from a group of young men shouting homophobic abuse, and the usual gaggle of Christian fundamentalists), and the sun shone. I enjoyed quick pints outside Halfway to Heaven and The Kings Arms, and was safely home by 4:30pm.
I see that someone has rattled Matt Goodwin's cage. What an unpleasant man he is. Several of my partner's cousins were born in refugee camps, to Holocaust survivors (in one case, survivors of both the Holocaust and Stalin's gulags)
Tonight's dinner Risotto giallo al funghi (a Venetian Jewish mushroom, garlic and saffron risotto)
Yes, its quite true. Andy Burnham will replace the National Anthem with the Coronation Street theme tune, and replace Big Ben with a giant animatronic statue of Victoria Wood that will sing Barry and Freda on the hour. Breakfast will be Eccles cakes, and Alan Bennett will become the King
Tonight's dinner Orzo salad with pesto, balsamic vinegar, black olives, sun-dried tomatoes, toasted pine nuts, spring onions, olive oil and lemon I can't say that I was The Naked Chef, but I certainly was The Topless Chef.
I'm not sure of the Conservative Party's new guerrilla marketing campaign to make Kemi Badenoch seem hip and urban.
The Daily Express wanted Brexit, and they got Brexit. I don't care if it didn't meet their glowing-pink-unicorn-in-the-sky psychedelic fantasy of that would be.
Today's dinner Steak, ale, red onion and mushroom pie, seasoned with rosemary, thyme & parsley. Quite delicious even if the pastry was slightly burned.
I enjoyed marching with the folks of Essex Pride, through the centre of Chelmsford, in the delightful company of Helen (the Welsh LGBTQ contingent). The turnout was impressive, the atmosphere fun, and joyful, yet defiant, in light of the more uncertain atmosphere for our community
Me, sitting on a rock in the Afon Dyfrdwy/River Dee, in Llangollen, on a very, very, hot day, last month
Tonight's dinner Tuna, rice, anchovy, artichoke heart, red onion, plum tomato, green olive, basil and caper salad, with a balsamic vinegar & garlic dressing.
Despite what Mr Middleton says, he was convicted of assault on police officers PC Katherine Alison and PC Christopher Brooksbank outside of a nightclub in Chelmsford, Essex, in 2013. He served 4 months of a 14 month sentence.
