 Gay Rom Com Mainstream American movies are as rare as hens teeth Rom coms are sanitized by the nature of the beast so a Rom com that features all aspects of the LGBTQ+ rainbow, which includes throuples, grindr sex, and the like seems a bit of a challenge. The Rom com itself centres upon Bobby  a loud, brittle but generally self reliant gay history museum curator ( played by Billy Eichner ) he meets shirtless beefcake lawyer Aaron ( Luke Macfarland) and the usual boy finds boy, boy looses boy, boy finds boy formula starts against a backdrop of a sassy script, sharp observations of the modern gay lifestyle and a pride of what’s gone on in the past.  The comedy is sweet enough ( ultimately a little too sentimental) which is a surprise given the drug taking, sex filled, and shallow lives the leads are shown to live.  But Eichner and Macfarland do  have a nice chemistry on screen and by the end I was shedding a tear, not only when the two finally get togeth...

Frances and Phoebe on the Norfolk coast north of Holt. They are staying there for a long weekend with two other young mums and their little daughters born within three weeks of our Phoebe.

Fortunately, for both all-female groups our recent weather has been unseasonably mild for late autumn. Sometimes it's cold enough to freeze your nuts off at this time of year - though I suppose such an analogy is inapposite in this instance.

Instead, I am going to make a a beef stew with dumplings. I...

  Look closely and you can see the remains of the nest The weather has changed and everyone’s heating is on today.  The wind is from the South West and has been strong enough to loosen the rook’s nest in the last remaining living ash in the graveyard.  Parts of it, we watched fall during a quick walk. Incidentally I found parts of my blue plastic earphones in Roger’s poo I wondered where they had gone. I’ve done little in 24 hours, only going out to the garage to buy my tearful neighbour a pick me up bag of treats, a few flowers, ice cream, chocolate raisins and 2 gossip magazines. We all need a treat when we are fed up. I’ve watched this weeks Bake off and  this week’s Walking Dead and needing a bit of company texted a friend to see if they wanted to see the gay rom com BROS later today  They will…… hurrah  I popped into my Ruth/Ben/John messenger group earlier after I heard the tragic news from Seoul. Ben lives there with his family ...
