I smelt him entering the room. I tried to hide, but he was not my blind date, he passed me by. I hardly noticed the clean shaven shy man , that smelled of ivory soap and baby powder that approached me. I relaxed with the familiar odor of clean, and turned to him and said hi.

She thought she knew it all
Anna hung up the phone , certain that her friends fate would not be hers. Her friend Diane had just found out that her husband was gay and was leaving her for another man, She had gone for an aids test , but was confused about how she hadn't sensed anything. They had weekly sex, he didn't seem unattracted. Anna had silently listened, she figured Jerry was bi-sexual but just happened to have a deeper connection with his new partner to be, than he did with Diane.

Tea set by a suffragette
Pankhurst is a name well known to the history of women’s suffrage. Who hasn't heard the name Emmaline Pankhurst, founder of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), an all-women organisation campaigning for the right to vote? The group that helped to achieve the right to vote for women in Great Britain and Ireland in 1918. Some know of her daughter Christabel, both being honoured by the Pankhurst memorial in Victoria Palace Gardens, London, right next to the UK Parliament buildings. Sylvia Pankhurst is notably not included in the monument. Why? Because she split with the WSPU to campaign against Britain's entry into First World War.
