Davina McCall got herself into a bit of hot water recently by being a bit too honest about her marriage and relationships. Personally, I don't think there is anything wrong with speaking your mind and being candid, particularly about something you are proud of. It's becoming rarer that people can talk about their marriage in terms of double figures, so why shouldn't she share her tips? The interview involved comments she made about her relationship with her husband and, as with all comments taken out of context, this one quickly became a beacon for feminists to flock to.

A Guest Post by The Husband...
War Games, Stamp Collecting, Blogging, even Pole Dancing, most people
have a passion in life and I'm no different. Mine is reading and researching.
When I take an interest in something or someone, I like to find all the facts I
can. My head is full of little pieces of knowledge that nobody else cares about, but
they all matter to me. I know I drive my wife mad at times, when I recite an
episode of Only Fools and Horses, word for word, or rattle off Dean Martin's
life story but she does nod occasionally and humour me, bless her.

Finding a Great Dentist for Nervous Children
L, who is 9, has been struggling with severe dental phobia for most of his life and I made it my mission this year to finally tackle it, before his adult teeth started to suffer. It is actually really hard to take your little boy somewhere that you know fills him with fear and dread, to the point where even the word 'dentist' causes physical distress and tears, so I hadn't been as strict as I should have been with his six monthly check ups. I did take him, but not as often as I should. No one knows where the phobia came from, I had never expressed fear of the dentist and had taken him since he was a toddler, but it gradually got worse over time.
