It shouldn’t be lost sight of here that rape isn’t about sex, it is about aggression. Rapists want to hurt and demean. Although a woman who gets drunk and ends up on her own late at night may be more at risk of being raped, it is unlikely to be entirely due to the clothes she chooses to wear.

Rape is violence.

But on a serious note…..all life is precious, and when I was offered the check for Down’s and spina bifida etc in early pregnancy, i turned it down. The reason I turned it down was that having had the blood test, you then had to have amniocentesis, and there was a risk of miscarriage with that. I didn’t want to lose my baby by testing it to see if it had a condition that they thought I might want to consider an abortion for. I knew that whatever happened, I would love my baby anyway.

How many of you were offered this test, and how many had the test and the amniocentesis? Just idle curiosity :)

I am reminded of Soham in all this. Guilty parties infront of cameras, lying through their teeth.

Whatever happened in Portugal, at this stage ‘blame’ is immaterial. What matters is that a small child is still missing, and if still alive is probably terrified and missing her parents and siblings. If dead, let us hope she didn’t suffer, the poor innocent little mite.

It makes me ashamed to be member of the human race when things like this happen.

Ok I am on a roll here.. but this one makes me chuckle….

Arctic monkeys (and remember you have to sing it with a Yorkshire accent!)
Mardy Bum

Now then Mardy Bum
I’ve seen your frown
And it’s like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh there’s a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer

It’s one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it’s right hard to remember
That on a day like today when you’re all argumentative
And you’ve got the face on

Well now then Mardy Bum
Oh I’m in trouble again, aren’t I
I thought as much
Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can’t bear

Can’t we laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it’s right hard to remember
That on a day like today when you’re all argumentative
And you’ve got the face on

Yeah I’m sorry I was late
But I missed the train
And then the traffic was a state
And I can’t be arsed to carry on in this debate
That reoccurs, oh when you say I don’t care
But of course I do, yeah I clearly do!

So laugh and joke around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Still it’s right hard to remember
That on a day like today when you’re all argumentative
And you’ve got the face on

And while we are on the subject of Ian Dury, this one always raises a smile :D

Wake up and make love

I come awake
with the gift for womankind
you’re still alseep
but the gift dont seem to mind.
Rise on this occasion
halfway up your back
sliding down your body
touching your behind

You look so self-possessed
I wont distrub your rest
its lovely when you’re sleeping
but wide awake is best

ow, wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up and make love with me
I don’t wanna make you
i’ll let the fancy take you
and you’ll wake up and make love

you come awake
in a horny morning mood
and well have a proper wriggle
in the naughty, naked nude
roll against my body
get me where you want me
what happens next is private
its also very rude

i’ll go and get the post
and make some tea and toast
you have a nother sleep luv
its me that needs it most

ow, wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up and make love with me
I dont wanna make you
i’ll let the fancy take you
and you’ll wake up and make love

wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up
wake up
wake up
wake up

Reasons to be cheerful…
the wonderful Ian Dury and the Blockheads

Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed
Why don’t you get back into bed

Reasons to be cheerful part 3

1 2 3

Summer, Buddy Holly, the working folly
Good golly Miss Molly and boats
Hammersmith Palais, the Bolshoi Ballet
Jump back in the alley and nanny goats

18-wheeler Scammels, Domenecker camels
All other mammals plus equal votes
Seeing Piccadilly, Fanny Smith and Willy
Being rather silly, and porridge oats

A bit of grin and bear it, a bit of come and share it
You’re welcome, we can spare it – yellow socks
Too short to be haughty, too nutty to be naughty
Going on 40 – no electric shocks

The juice of the carrot, the smile of the parrot
A little drop of claret – anything that rocks
Elvis and Scotty, days when I ain’t spotty,
Sitting on the potty – curing smallpox

Health service glasses
Gigolos and brasses
round or skinny bottoms

Take your mum to paris
lighting up the chalice
wee willy harris

Bantu Stephen Biko, listening to Rico
Harpo, Groucho, Chico

Cheddar cheese and pickle, the Vincent motorsickle
Slap and tickle
Woody Allen, Dali, Dimitri and Pasquale
balabalabala and Volare

Something nice to study, phoning up a buddy
Being in my nuddy
Saying hokey-dokey, singalonga Smokey
Coming out of chokey

John Coltrane’s soprano, Adi Celentano
Bonar Colleano

I’d love to

Again
I lay awake
and I cried because of waste

I’d love to
(But only with you
Only with you)

Oh, time is gonna wipe us out
There, I’ve said it loud and clear
So that you will hear
There’s no one in view
Just you
Just you
And time will never wipe you out

Now I’ve had enough
I’ve had more than could be
My rightful share
Of nights I can’t bear
How can it be fair ?
Time must wipe them out

So, again, I lay awake
In a trance
Oh, I just want my chance
But only with you
Only with you
That’s all
That’s all
Aah …

Breaking the Girl – Red Hot Chillis

I am a man
Cut from the know
Rarely do friends
Come and then go
She was a girl
Soft but estranged
We were the two
Our lives rearranged
Feeling so good that day
A feeling of love that day

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You’re breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think you’re so clever
But now you must sever
You’re breaking the girl
He loves no one else

Raised by my dad
Girl of the day
He was my man
That was the way
She was the girl
Left alone
Feeling the need
To make me her home
I don’t know what when or why
The twilight of love had arrived

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You’re breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think you’re so clever
But now you must sever
You’re breaking the girl
He loves no one else

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
You’re breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think you’re so clever
But now you must sever
You’re breaking the girl
He loves no one else

Warped – red hot chillis

My tendency
For dependency
Is offending me
It’s upending me
I’m pretending see
To be strong and free
From my dependency
It’s warping me

So much love
So rare to dare
Afraid of
Ever being there
Take me home
I need repair
Take me please
To anywhere

Descend all the way all the way

Descended from
Demented men
Struggle with
The art of Zen
Please don’t look
Too close at me
You might not like
What you see

Chorus

Night craving
Sends me crawling
Beg for mercy
Does it show
A vacancy
That’s full of holes
Hold me please
I’m feeling cold

Chorus

Chorus :
Descend all the way all the way
Everyday
Warped and scared
Of being there
Of being there
