I’ve decided to resurrect this blog largely to provide a focal point for the recent attention that my family and I received when I submitted an open letter to the Department of Justice regarding the Civil Partnership Bill. It was printed in the Irish Times and has been picked up by several blogs.
So, where have we featured (to the best of my knowledge, leave a comment to let me know more)?
