I'm not really a churchy person, although I do think Jesus was a good bloke.

I made a supreme effort not to do that thing that parents do, which is to bore people without children to death by going on and on about how funny their children are, so there's none of that hopefully.

One thing lots of Christians do have in common is that they can't help coming across as smug. This winds lots of people up, particularly because famous Christians pronounce on the life of the poor from their very lovely affluent homes filled with their very lovely families and attractive pets.

I like to read my diary occasionally to remind myself what a miserable, alienated old sod I used to be.

I read that book Fat is a Feminist issue, got a bit desperate halfway through and ate it.

Having children is fab. They keep me young and make me get up in the morning.

How do you conduct an intimate relationship where no one ever loses it? Where no one ever lashes out, where no one ever smacks anyone in the mouth?
