Look I don't know if I should be voicing this opinion while in the beautiful city of Edinburgh, but I have a problem with JK Rowling. I know she's beloved here, I know she wrote some of the books in that cafe where you can queue up for an hour to eat a bad pie, but I have an issue.

Katharine Gemmell, The List, 3rd August 2018It was a Midsummer Night's Dream... with scrumpy
My show is called The Year of Magical Fucking but I thought it might be nice to write about something that happened outside that year, in a simpler time, 2010: the last ever time I had sex with a woman. I was also the last man that she had sex with (because she is also gay... she didn't die or anything).
