I have nothing to add, because Bruce succinctly and eloquently expressed what needed to be said on this difficult subject. Thank you Bruce.

How do you celebrate holidays? Any particular holiday? All of them? Well, I guess we’ll look at what are historically two of the UK’s biggest holidays: Easter and Christmas. As a kid, Easter was about Easter Eggs. Big, delicious, chocolatey Easter Eggs. As an adult, not much has changed! Easter Sunday also happens to be […]
Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail. This ‘kat has a couple of examples of some spectacular cookery cock-ups. They’re not necessarily what some would consider culinary catastrophes, but for me, they most certainly are. First up, there was the ‘nearly taking my eyebrows off using the grill’ moment. I fancied a bacon […]
To preen is to behave or speak with obvious pride or self-satisfaction. I dare say we’ve all had moments when we’ve been pleased with ourselves, but when does a display of pride become irritating? When does an attempt to strut one’s stuff become inconvenient to others? That’s where I’m going with this prompt, which is […]
Spam is the evolution of cold-calling and tele-marketing. I believe it’s as simple as that. In ye olden days (The 80s and early 90s to me!), the pre-internet era as it were, saw ‘spam’ take the form of people knocking on doors to try and sell you various wares. It also saw you receive random […]
Where do rights to criticise begin and end? This is the concept I wish to explore within this particular prompt. In many respects, the right to criticise can be considered an inalienable aspect of freedom of speech. My view is that nothing should be free from criticism. If your confidence in your ideology, beliefs, or […]
Autumn is truly upon us. Welcome to the Meerkat Muse. October is normally when things start to take a colder turn, but then, UK weather is increasingly unpredictable, so who knows? Lonely Times Work has delivered more lone-trading occasions, and will bring more in the coming weeks. This isn’t a huge, insurmountable problem for me […]
Here comes a topic to which I have devoted a great many words, both here on Meerkat Musings, and on the Coalition of the Brave site. The links are to two of several posts that discuss feminism, and there are plenty of posts that feature feminism as an overlapping subject. However, thus far, there is […]
Let it be said that football continues to throw up surprises. Not always (Man City’s 3-1 defeat of Leicester at the Etihad featured yet another display of passing mastery from Guardiola’s men, especially from Kevin De Bruyne), but there is always an astonishing, unexpected result or two. Consistency is a buzzword in football, and thus […]
Dictionary.com threw up a fascinating word the other day: Skookum. I’d never heard of this word before, and I am now wracking my brain, trying to figure out when best to use it. Skookum means ‘large, powerful, impressive’. In other words, it does not describe me. In any sense! Well, I guess I might be […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
You may be wondering where this post will go. Well, let’s place the scene in the restaurant above. What might I deem inappropriate behaviour in this setting? A restaurant has waiting staff, who (depending on the quality of the establishment) may or may not be paid a particularly decent wage, yet will work very hard. […]
