It will make a huge difference to all of us. And I don't think it is just women who want this, all the men I've spoken to have said that this man makes them ashamed to be maleEryl Shieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818102006775827503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-42909164692863234922008-09-28T10:01:00.000+01:002008-09-28T10:01:00.000+01:00Eryl, many thanks to all your readers who have po...Eryl, many thanks to all your readers who have posted about my campaign to get better justice for victims of serious crimes in Scotland.<BR/>I'd be delighted if any of your readers would like to leave comments on my blog at http://janedearie.blogspot.com <BR/>It helps to show the 'powers that be' that women will stand together against such evil men and the present system that treats the survivors so badly. <BR/>Thanks to all for your support and kindness, JaneJane Deariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11325696737546177834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-66347212977350218932008-09-28T07:51:00.000+01:002008-09-28T07:51:00.000+01:00Good luck to you, Eryl, and to Stevie too.

But Glasgow University has become a commercial enterprise of late, so they have a whole team of people keeping an eye on these things and badgering you constantly. However, I have faith in the educationalists that inhabit its halls, and our campus is very small and intimate so everyone knows me and will fight my corner if needed, I'm sure. <BR/><BR/>As for Jane, she is an amazing woman, a tower of strength and generous to a fault. She is doing this, not for herself, but to try and ensure that women everywhere are safe from such men.Eryl Shieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818102006775827503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-20626068266989045942008-09-23T05:58:00.000+01:002008-09-23T05:58:00.000+01:00Ah, best wishes in your class.

The work they generate though! I have to write a new story in ten days, and in the next couple of weeks an opening chapter of a novel along with a synopsis of the rest of it, not to mention the poetry. Thank goodness I oiled my counter-tops over the weekend so I have one less thing to worry about.<BR/><BR/>Jane ~ I think Stevie got on well. I did ask him but when he started talking about spreadsheets I blacked out. I'll ask him again tomorrow. He has another one tomorrow too though, so things could get confusing. I have every faith that he will get another job without us having to evacuate the house, more faith, I think, than he does. He's never let me down before.<BR/><BR/>You're welcome, about the blog publicity. Anything else I can do to help just let me know. It's about time we got a proper dialogue going about this subject.<BR/><BR/>Savannah ~ Thank you. I'm pretty sure we'll be fine. I do generally believe in that old maxim about things that don't kill you making you stronger. <BR/><BR/>It is sad isn't it, very sad?Eryl Shieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818102006775827503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-28644091480895910442008-09-22T22:14:00.000+01:002008-09-22T22:14:00.000+01:00my best to you and your man this year (always actu...my best to you and your man this year (always actually), sugar! thanks for the link re: jane dearie. it saddens me that rape is still treated so lightly around the world and a woman's word so devalued. let us hope that there is still justice for those who survive.<BR/>xoxosavannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310843901371718758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-18337312397489447222008-09-22T22:03:00.000+01:002008-09-22T22:03:00.000+01:00I really hope your year at uni goes well Eryl.

I'm fingers crossed it's good news all round on the new day of term, the first day of autumn and first day of Libra - a balanced outlook with any luck?!<BR/>Thanks so much for helping to publicise my new blog and alert others to my campaign. I hope it will help victims and their families in the future and be of some comfort to the many victims of Carruthers who never got the justice that should have been theirs by right. <BR/>JaneJane Deariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11325696737546177834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-44968440611934884982008-09-22T19:16:00.000+01:002008-09-22T19:16:00.000+01:00best of luck and fun for the new term.
