2007: A poodle tale, a lost limb, a hint of chickens to come, statements of the obvious, and deceiving bishops

This article is part 23 of 5 in an ongoing series A Spicy Retrospective 2004-2008

This is the penultimate part of my blog retrospective. 2007 was the year that saw me enter my forties. Marked by a poodle for the glory of gay gods tells the story of how my mother’s pet poodle bit the doctor who turned up too late to attend my home birth. It might arguably be not only my best headline ever, but also one of the funniest personal stories I’ve ever shared online (even though I, obviously enough, have no recollection of the events as told to me by my mum).
