threeforthememoriesThis year involved a lot of travel and a lot of heartache
We visited Conwy in Wales for the first time, famous for its massive medieval castle:
We also visited Strasbourg in France which was new to me although not to other half. It has a magnificent cathedral and this madonnna, part south American and part deco influenced fascinated me:
And now the heartache. As some of you know, I am a trans woman and our goverment here in the UK has decided that making our lives as difficult as possible would be a fine idea and I am likely to be losing basic human rights in the coming year.
So just for the record, this is what a trans woman (and indeed her husband) looks like. I'm 5'6" and no, it isn't a 'bad wig' but my own hair (admittedly coloured these days as I've gone grey). And those obsessed with bits would be most disappointed if I was standing there naked!
The userpic's me in my later twenties. I set out on the journey at 15 and had GC surgery at 21. I met my husband when I was 38.
This was taken for us by a kind Canadian lady in Conwy castle.
