I sometimes wonder, usually late at night when I am unable to sleep, due to too much caffeine and too little romantic pillow talk (last night we discussed the origins of the humble sprout, apparently they originated in Ireland, like most things) if it is likely I will be married before my face starts to […]

I notice three women have already occupied the room which is meant to be ours, busy getting on with rude things, and looking decidedly dodgy.
