A Message of Love

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , on July 23, 2010 | 2 Comments »

Since the web publication of my interview last Thursday, I have been swinging from the rooftops to the gutter and back up again. I always knew I would, so I am “comfortable” with this state of uncertainty.  I have lived through this many times. This is just a “mini-post”.  I have much to write about, [...]

My ANGER at second Rape at Latitude Festival

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , on July 18, 2010 | 1 Comment »

I couldn’t believe it either.  Another rape has allegedly taken place. To think of all of this going on during such a poignant weekend in my home county is becoming too much to bear. I am sure that the facts about each of these cases will unfold during the fullness of time, and of course [...]

Rape at The Latitude Festival

Yesterday was a very special day for me. My interview with Karl at The Dialogue Project was played to people in the forest at The Latitude Festival.  The Festival is especially important to me, as takes place in my beautiful and much-loved home county of Suffolk. I have been so very touched by countless messages [...]

I May Not Be A Lady…

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , , , , on July 16, 2010 | 6 Comments »

Recently, a very dear friend of mine, Olivia Mackinder, asked me on Twitter what my latest blog post would be about. I responded thoughtfully, “Femininity, Judgement and Listening.” “Quite an epic then!” She replied.  She wasn’t wrong. The truth is, there is so much going on in my life right now that I do not [...]

The Chaos Theory

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , on May 26, 2010 | 12 Comments »

Those of you familiar with my blog and a previous post about a year ago, entitled Shade, will know of my career as a Swiss Concubine.  It is a position I hold dear within our community.  There aren’t many people who get the kind of appreciating looks I do in the Swiss Co-op, stressed to [...]

Clarity

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , on May 21, 2010 | 1 Comment »

It’s funny how sometimes a person walks into your life at precisely the right time and says precisely the right thing. This morning, a lady called Monica walked into my living room.  Monica is Spanish and has just moved to Lausanne from Madrid.  Her husband and 18 month old daughter will be moving here in [...]

Presents are wrapped, balloons tied up, everything is ready. So why am I crying? Tomorrow my first born, my little angel girl, is 3 years old. She went to creche today, dressed in her favourite outfit of jeans, grey and pink polka dot top, white fluffy coat and Hello Kitty trainers. We took cakes for [...]

Insult My Beloved Twitter, Insult ME…(Or #Twisps)

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , on March 25, 2010 | 4 Comments »

This sounds like the start of a rant.  It’s not.  But I would dearly like to explain to those people* (who describe Twitter as a “total waste of time” or “a website for really self-absorbed arseholes”, but have never opened a Twitter account or if they have, spent very little time on it and expected [...]

Spoiled Rotten

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , on March 21, 2010 | 6 Comments »

This week saw me and The Utility celebrating our four year anniversary (from the day we met, not from the day we married.  I remain a concubine in the eyes of the Swiss, at least). Yes, it is indeed FOUR WHOLE YEARS since I paid £70 and picked up a Jason on www.Match.com.  I did [...]

The Healing Of My Spirit With Deeds Not Words

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , on March 2, 2010 | 3 Comments »

Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Or at least, the first day without pins, stitches or anything else embedded into my arm. This morning I went once more to the lovely Hospital Riviera, Montreux, to have my stitches removed. I appear to be quite well-known there now and I seem [...]
