I've just used Good Law Project's tool to email MPs on the Council of Europe and let them know they donβt have to bend down to Sex Matterβs transphobic threats.
The more they hear from us, the harder itβll be for them to ignore us. goodlaw.social/9f10d1
Weβre getting excited about the 20th Iris Prize. But without some great films our plans wonβt come to much! Submissions are now open. Check out what one filmmaker had to say about their experience and why you should submit your LGBTQ+ film.
Today marks 26 years since the Admiral Duncan Nail Bombing. Three people died and 79 were injured. Hate crimes against LGBTQIA+ people are increasing dramatically. We stand in solidarity and remembrance, for those lost on that day and in similar attacks globally. #AdmiralDuncan

This weekend Iβve been feeding the cake, eating in some great locally run and owned restaurants and avoiding unusually strong winds. And Berwynβs been decoratingβ¦
A 23 cm cake tin lined with baking parchment and full of a rich fruit cake mixture sits in the middle of an electric oven.

Whilst I love the idea of easy sexual health testing, there must be an easier way of getting a blood sample? Three lances, a set of fingers that look like pin-cushions and 30 minutes later Iβm still not sure Iβve managed to collect enough.
Chauffeur duties today - driving @BerwynR to Llanelli for his spot on tonightβs Heno.
So Iris has left town, and so have I! (Only for a couple of days.) I was introduced to Manchester in the late 80s and ever since itβs been calling me back. Whether to Wythenshawe, Canal St, Northern Quarter or Angel Square the city of red brick, commerce and mills is feeling like home.
