Pink Tape

a blog from the family bar

Barrister, Boys and Baby!

I don’t laugh out loud when reading very often.

    A blog in which I ricochet from too serious to too flippant, and alternate between a bit clever, a bit interesting and a bit ranty: Pink Tape neatly functions as both a blog about family law and a therapeutic escape valve for me. >>more
