Enduring love? Couple relationships in the 21st Century – part 1
TONIGHT WE HAD a visit from an Open University researcher who is working on a project called Enduring Love? Couple Relationships in the 21st Century. My partner completed an online questionnaire a few months ago, and we were selected from almost 5,400 people who completed the questionnaire to be one of 60 couples who are …

A photo a day kept inspiration at play – Now can we be married and gay?
WHEN I STARTED this blog I aimed to write a short post each week. I managed for about six weeks, but some of the posts were not so short as I was writing about issues and experiences that had been on my mind for months and years. But life began to take over and I …

Photo A Day – December 12: Hat #FMSphotoaday
The first time I met my partner’s aunt, she waited until he was out of earshot and asked, ‘So do I need to buy a hat?’ She is not what you’d expect a supporter of marriage equality to be – a working class mother of three from Merseyside, not an obvious ally at first glance. …

Photo A Day – December 11: Sweet #FMSphotoaday
A TASTE OF AUSTRALIA will be with us for Christmas this year – a ginger and banana Christmas pudding!

Photo A Day – December 10: Under #FMSphotoaday
THE GIFTS from Australia have arrived, and are the first under the tree. My partner is from Sydney, Australia, but we can’t afford to go there every year at the height of their summer, so his mum has sent a box of goodies for him and me, including hand-knitted decorations for the tree! We also …

Photo A Day – December 8: Someone I love #FMSphotoaday
FIVE YEARS AGO TODAY my partner and I had our first date. Little did we know as we met in that café that we would make the news in 2012 as the first couple in the UK to register a civil partnership in a place of worship. Yesterday I found myself on the news again, as the …
