Here are a few of my fave pics from yesterday's parade. See my Flickr page for all the pictures.This gal was on the London Lesbian and Gay Switchboard float. Hirarious!I might not agree with much that Labour supporters now say but... this sign made me laugh so hard as I also nodded my head in agreement.Boris Johnson seemed at ease on the parade, but not far behind him was a group of marchers shouting "BORIS, BORIS, BORIS. OUT, OUT, OUT!!". I gave them a loud supporting blow on my rainbow whistle (of course I had a ...

**SPOILERS**This was not a complete disaster, which given the high standards set in the previous episode is something to be proud of. But personally I didn't think it was quite as good as that episode, even if it did hit some high notes. So the Daleks plan is revealed... to destroy every universe in existence, leaving just the Daleks. Every new series companion is brought together in one place as the Daleks plan near fruition but thanks to the Doctor's failed regeneration his hand has regenerated into a more human version of him; and left Donna a bit more of ...

Dusty fancied a little Italian for lunch yesterday, so with no luck on the hunk front, we settled for a Pizza restaurant.  Zizzi Restaurant at 2 Lendal in York was quiet when we arrived at around 12.30 and after a little wait at the meet’n'greet point we were seated by a young European guy with [...]Copyright © maviscrewitt.com 2008.

It rained all day yesterday, so we had a lazy day indoors watching DVDs until the afternoon when we decided to do some baking. ET made an egg and parsley pie (which was really yummy), I made some breadrolls (which came out pretty good, I have to say) and, together, we made a spicy fruit cake (together, because it's hard work mixing the ingredients sometimes...once, I managed to snap a wooden spoon doing it!).We wouldn't normally make fruit cake in the middle of summer but yesterday felt like winter. It was cold and dreary, the kind of weather that makes ...

I’ve seen nothing but a string of adverts for “Male Enhancement Pills” American television is dire. ShareThis ...

Mostly, time seems to be pretty steady. Well. Not always very steady, because sometimes when the bears are doing something boring like the ironing then it seems to take a long long time.But very very strange things happen to time when the big bear and little bear is snuggling. Much stranger things than when BB is ironing or LB is installing virus checkers on the pooters.At nighttime, the bears like to have a snuggle before they go to sleep.  When snuggling happens before sleep, even though the bears might only have snuggled for five minutes of clock time, they know ...

Pride was brilliant. The sea of pink Union Jacks came stomping down Regent Street led by London Mayor Boris Johnson, to the sound of drums. Drag queens and muscular men, political protesters and same sex ballroom dancers. It was an amazing parade. The military and police units made my heart swell with pride, as it normally does, while the topless men had a similar effect elsewhere. I spotted Peter Tatchell, Carole from Big Brother 8 and Ian McKellan spread among the crown along with some well known homosexuals on the scene. At Trafalgar Square Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg gave ...

Before hitting the cinema last night Dusty and I found ourselves in Maxi’s (Chinese) Restaurant in Nether Poppleton, York.  We hadn’t planned to come here, it just sort of happened given our first choice of restaurant turned out to have been closed for the evening due to some failure in the restaurant.  Anyway we had [...]Copyright © maviscrewitt.com 2008.

Dusty and I popped along to the Vue Cinema in York last night to see Kung Fu Panda which had just been released.  We arrived a little late which meant we missed all the adverts that precede films these days and by the time we sat down having stopped for expensively priced ice cream we were [...]Copyright © maviscrewitt.com 2008.

We are delighted to announce that Kevin Brennan, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families will be attending the pre-launch event of History Month due to take place in November.Last year's key speakers at the event were Baroness Scotland, the Attorney General, and Barbara Follett, the then Minister for Equality. The presence of both highlighted the generous and continuous support provided to the Month by several government bodies, such as the Ministry for Justice, the Crown Prosecution Service, the Metropolitan Police Service and Metropolitan Police Authority, and the Department of Health. This is the first time however ...

There are also...I took these photographs on Thursday. I bought ET some icecream and we went for a stroll around Swanpool. It's a pity the weather hasn't continued like it was, for now the rain seems set in for the weekend. It's a particularly heavy rain with a strong wind, so I won't be going out and about with the camera. But, thank goodness, that means I won't have to do any gardening this weekend either (we did an awful lot of back-breaking work last week). ...

I guess I’m unusual in so much as I’m an out straight-leaning bisexual, there aren’t that many of us. Though by virtue of the internet, thankfully we can connect with others in the same boat and not feel quite so isolated. I wouldn’t like to say I’m proud of my sexuality, because that makes it [...] ...
