At the risk of being pilloried - I've been in much the same situation as the girl who was raped (drunk/footballer/ sexual assault) - I was drunk, I was star struck, I was in a hotel, he was a well-known footballer. I don't see myself as a "victim" - I was a star struck, drunk, young woman who put myself in a vulnerable situation - I don't for one moment think I "deserved" it, but I am also realistic enough to recognise that there are degrees of rape - I wasn't beaten, I wasn't dragged into an alleyway and left for dead, all of which I'm thankful for.... I was culpable to a certain extent - granted he shouldn't have done what he did, but then neither should I. I'm not defending Ched Evans by any means but I fully expect the indignation and wrath of the EDF to plummet on my head....

I would never make anyone feel guilty for enjoying Christmas, similarly I would hope that no-one would bellow Bah Humbug because I don't (and never have) enjoyed Christmas....
I've never felt less Christmassy - have put a wreath on the front door, more so that burglars don't think we're away; have placed a few perfunctory decorations on the mantelpiece and am supposed to be wrapping presents; I really can't be doing with it all.....
