The beautiful blue sea.
The coastal walk.
Getting to know (and joke with) Andrea, Graham and Doreen. And feeling like an adult with them.

Big hugs from mum and dad.
My train ticket to POO.
The new plant from my neighbour.
A walk with Jo. And giving her some flowers. Also the delicious almond croissant.
Getting my very late Christmas and birthday presents from my parents. Opening presents is fun.
Multitasking and doing my day job whilst doing vulva stuff too. I felt so accomplished today.
My parents being at my Labia Lessons. They were adorable.
Tash dropping round my care package – so adorable!
A walk round the park with Jen. Quick but useful to verbalise some things and understand some things better in my own head. She’s great but she’s not always right and I can trust myself too.
Listening to Black Parade on repeat as I walked to work.
The ceremonial eating of the only ripe boat tomato.
Swimming in the river, by the cows.
And shooing them off with mum when they came charging at us as we got in the water.
The beautiful beautiful Thames by Oxford. So peaceful and idyllic.
Shelling peas, under the trees.
Swimming in the Thames.
Being on the boat with mum and dad, having some nice conversations and watching the quiet watery world go by.
Seeing my family again.
Playing with Freddie and he giggles and smiles and trusts me.
Bum bum bum bum bum bum TUMMY!
Listening to my podcast.
The squirrel that was right beside me as I walked through the estate.
Having mum and dad in London, walking along the canal in the sun and lunch on a canal boat cafe.
The Paper Man. Such an amazing play that I just wasn’t expecting.
And dad telling me they’d watched 100 Vaginas
A day on the boat with my parents. So so lovely to be cruising along on the countryside.
Stuart chatting more to them both. It was so much better this time.
Feeling mega close to Stuart, for a second day in a row.
Coming up to the boat to see my parents. Watching the Vicar of Dibley. Sitting by the fire.
Photos of me and mum wearing my vulva t-shirts.
A beautiful, sunny walk with them.
Telling them all about Body of Women. A big moment and it went well. And then mum gave me a big hug again before bed and told me how proud of me she is and she was sorry for being rubbish when it all happened. It feels good to have told them.
Joining the GAP team for lunch.
Leaving work for Christmas. YAS! I love Christmas, I love walking through sunset-y London, I love going home and I love being on holiday from work. Weeeee!
Being at home, going to a big supermarket with my parents, talking about recycling and FairTrade things.
Walking to the next village, singing loudly in the sun. I never get to sing out loud anymore.
Purple potatoes from Abel and Cole. They made the water turn blue.
A walk along the river.
Lighting a fire. Kind of badly it turns out. And smelling that fresh countryside air in the evening. I love it so much.
