She/her. 49. Writer. Aquatramp. Feral trans woman moving very slowly around the inland waterways.
Ollie has a new friend, Stanley the Sheep.

He’s being very kind to him so far. This may or may not last, as previously murdered stuffed animals will testify.

The attack on his niece was a few years ago. Everything this scumbag has done since has been with full awareness of what he's been empowering and emboldening.

To come out with this now is gobsmacking. I don't know how he's got the nerve.
Irks me when he says this because I’ve been at an LGBT event he’s been at, I’ve seen him attend others; he is in no way unaware of this being a problem nor his own role in it

It’s a very cold morning here 🥶 but my fire has been going all night and it’s toasty in the boat. 🤗🔥

I like these thick frosts. Ollie comes in with clean feet. ☕️

It might be sunny, but it’s bitterly cold out there. 🥶

Poor Ollie got me up at 3. He had a bad tum and had to go out immediately, which meant I had to go out in just knickers and a long T-shirt.

There’s some men outside in orange overalls revving chainsaws. I haven’t got a clue what they’re doing.

Look at this. Just look at this.

Hateful voices from the Stone Age, screaming desperately against science and modern understanding of a perfectly natural human variation, like petulant, spoilt brats throwing a nasty tantrum after being told the kids they dislike are still allowed in the playground.
"gender ideology is anti-gravity nonsense that only the desperate, the deluded and the double-dealing grifters still believe": just in case you were still wondering quite how consumed with hatred are Hadley Freeman and The Sunday Times.

It’s a cold, wet, horrible day here, but the Swan Family looked happy enough when I encountered them just now on my water run. 💜

The one who had the fishing line ordeal on Saturday was in front and confidently leading the way to wherever they were going. 🤗

Morning. ☕

Not a nice day out there today and I have boat jobs to do that involve going outside. 😤

Actually, I've just decided not to do most of them. 👸🏻🍷👍🏻

The true, shocking scale of the fear of trans women going to the toilet 😱 that is gripping the UK.

Happy Friday.

It’s another very cold morning and I’ve had another of my 13 hour sleeps, so I’m waiting for my fire to get going again. 🔥🥶

I like to be up a lot earlier than this at this time of year, when lunchtime means the day is almost gone.

At least it’s sunny! 🌞 That keeps the S.A.D. at bay.

I'm doing a complaint about this article for once again calling trans women 'biological males'.

It's incorrect and I think deliberately inflammatory. It's got to stop.
Trans people could be barred from services based on appearance
The new code of practice on access to single-sex services cannot gain legal force until it gets sign-off from ministers.

It's -2°C this morning. 🥶 I like it when it's frozen. It means Ollie's feet aren't muddy when he comes in.

I'm very much hibernating right now. Like a squirrel. Except squirrels mostly don't have a woodburner and supplies ordered online brought to them. 👸🏻

If the EHRC had their way we'd see all women forced back into wearing only skirts and dresses and wearing their hair long lest they be suspected of being trans and banned from going to the toilet.

That's what this is suggesting. Masculine women being denied access alongside trans people.

At least it's honest, right? Intrusive questioning of women who don't conform to norms about how they should look, and women then being banned if they tell their inquisitor to mind his own sodding business, has always been the logical end point for the patriarchal project that is TERFdom.
November 20, 2025 at 6:43 AM
Bloody hell. This is batshit.

State sanctioned harassment of women going to the toilet, based on appearance, body type, and degree of conformity to conservative gender stereotypes.

The UK is no longer a modern country. A modern country would not be entertaining this draconian shit.
Surely the EHRC can see how INSANE this sounds?

Right!? 😬

“Under the new guidance, places…will be able to question transgender women over whether they should be using single-sex services based on how they look, their behaviour or concerns raised by others”

The Swan Family cygnets saw me and came over this afternoon. 😍

Don’t know where Mum and Dad were, but it’s fantastic to see all four of them looking well and confident after the ordeal one of them had on Saturday.

On this date last year, Ollie, Seren and I woke up to some wonderful snow. ☃️

I was hoping for the same today, but it’s not to be. 😤 The snow isn’t too far away though. Hopefully we will get some! 🤞🏻

🚨 Bashed bonce update. 🚨

Just had a ‘senior moment’ in the shop whilst attempting to pay for coal. I was asking for 12.5kg bags.

The lady said they don’t do 12.5kg. I said I always buy 12.5kg. There’s loads of 12.5kg bags. Just let me pay and take one.

They were 15kg. 😳 And I always buy 15kg. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I banged my head in the boat yesterday morning. Can't remember how I did it, but I spent the rest of the day sleeping a lot. 😵

Today my brain seems to have returned to its normal state of semi consciousness, and I have a big bump on the top of my skull. 😄

It's very cold today 🥶 but the sun is out 🌞 and the world is looking very colourful. 😎☕

Morning. ☕️

6 years ago I was being told I was ruining my life. A lot of grim stuff was said to me, and I’ve since proved it all wrong.

I’m not the weak little person I or they thought I was.

I’m going to keep pushing upwards. 2026 is going to see me do stuff I used to think was impossible for me.

🚨 Major drama here! 🚨

One of the swan babies got a fishing hook stuck in his mouth and was dragging a nylon line and a load of reeds/sticks behind. 😭

Thankfully these brilliant ladies from MK Swan Rescue were quick to the scene and the baby is back with the Swan Family, who all seem happy now! 💜👍🏻

The moment segregation like this becomes law, you grant every member of society the chance to be a gender cop and some people will happily take on that role and bully every butch woman they see.

Happy Saturday. ☕️

It feels very winter today. I don’t think it’s cold, but the temperature is due to plummet this week and some people are talking about snow.

Ollie got me up at 3. 🥱 The overflow weir was doing its job and making a loud noise, dealing with all the excess water that fell yesterday.
