Among John Bolch's many posts on Family Lore he blogs about the superiority of cats as train station managers, wifi in Crown & Combined Court Centres, advice to those contemplating divorce, the latest instalment of Tricia Walsh-Smith on Youtube, John Hemmings & the Court of Appeal, shared residence, positive parenting etc. A veritable feast with something for everyone.
Welcome back from maternity leave is Pink Tape who has blogged about the Guardian piece on cases at Wells St FPC, barristers' earnings from public funding & FDAC at Wells St.
On Laws of Love by Southampton based barrister, Mark Chaloner, a piece about women's superiority in the fridge department, the child's need for a father & public funding fees.
Diane Benussi's Benussi Blog has dealt with alcohol consumption, shaking off the divorce doldrums & coping with financial pressure.
Divorce Solicitor Lynne Bastow talks about destressing & divorce, what she wants for the baby she is expecting and whether it matters who starts the divorce.
Judith's Divorce Blog from Judith Middleton of Latimer Hinks covers war stories of vengeful clients, misleading headlines getting clients in a lather and as usual her posts are beautifully illustrated with lovely pictures.
Marilyn Stowe's blog features two stonkingly good posts on divorce dirty tricks and family law & accountants.
And on my blog Bloody Relations the mixture of humour (a family law joke) and tragedy (the tale of Tom & Nancie) which is the stuff of family law itself.

Blog roundup
I start where I usually start and you all should start with the inimitable John Bolch of Family Lore . Among his many recent posts I was particularly glad to read about the Independent's Happy List which is a truly touching, moving & inspiring list of people who contribute happiness to our lives. You can add your own nominations. John has also blogged about Tricia Walsh-Smith's you tube videos about her divorce, Stack v Dowden , & the downloadable booklet for separating parents published by Resolution .
The Ancillary Actuary blog published a post last month by Tom Tyler from my chambers on pensions . Peter Moore, the editor of the blog tells me that pension sharing reports from Bradshaw Dixon Moore always test how the scheme implements pension-sharing orders. If they identify a risk of financial harm, the details and options are set out in their trademark straightforward and readable report. You can email the firm to ask for a report and a copy of their free guide on pensions and divorce.
Pink Tape has blogged about that Coleridge speech & the new blog Laws of Love by Southampton based barrister, Mark Chaloner, who has also blogged about that Coleridge speech.
Diane Benussi's Benussi Blog has dealt with separation & sex tourism, telling children the truth & couples who separate living in the same town.
Divorce Solicitor Lynne Bastow talks about whether it matters who issues the petition, applying respectful uncertainty (ie scepticism) about what your child says about your ex, & how to tell if your wife no longer loves you.
Judith's Divorce Blog from Judith Middleton of Latimer Hinks blogs about Coleridge, the silly filly & involving the in-laws in divorce.
Marilyn Stowe's blog features posts on parents' views on their children's spouses, faith & divorce, investment trusts & marital mobile snooping.
And on my blog Bloody Relations there are some fine comedy videos (Monty Python & Peter Cook) & posts on contact post-separation, equal parenting time & McKenzie friends.

Family Law Blogs (aka Blawgs or should it be Flawgs)
Naturally this blog is set to become the first among equals of all UK family law blogs but if you have blinked in the blogosphere you may have missed one or two of this growing clan.
Delia Venables has published a piece about new family law blogs in the UK in her internet newsletter for September / October 2007. Click here to to subscribe to her newsletter .
The first and mother of them all is Family Lore by Chatham based solicitor John Bolch. John covers a variety of topics of interest to lawyers & non-lawyers with news & comments usually posted daily. Posts this month included : in-court conciliation, Government funding & the paramountcy principle, Hill v Haines & Mr Justice Singer.
I write a blog - Bloody Relations - mainly aimed at non-lawyers explaining aspects of UK family law and comments on family law topics in the news. Posts this month have continued a continuation of a series on parental responsibility, comment on experts, a series on missing words and orders in family cases. Obviously fantastic.
Pink Tape is written by a ‘mainly family law barrister’ (soon to be blogging here!) and this month she has been exercised & excited about the new guidance on Justices' Reasons, adoption & father's rights & Mr Justice Singer.
Solicitor Lynne Bastow specialises in divorce and her Divorce Solicitor
blog is a nice mix of top tips for dealing with the emotional side of it together with legal pieces. This month she has covered whether divorce will make you happier, can a holiday save a marriage, hanging on to your ex & mediation.
Solicitors’ firm Spain Williams run a blog called Family Matters which has good advice about aspects of matrimonial law. Posting is not that frequent but worth waiting for and this month has covered divorce on the grounds of desertion.
Judith Middleton is a Darlington based divorce lawyer whose blog Judith's Divorce Blog is quite personal & fun with pieces this month on the Christmas shopping, her friend Constance's divorce, that modern phenomenon, the divorce party & the divorce & remarriage of Lord Haw Haw.
Diane Benussi is a solicitor specialising in divorce and writes a lot about the emotional aftermath of divorce & separation & how to deal with divorce proceedings. The Benussi Blog
posted this month about how to cope with Christmas, why people want to be married in spite of the divorce rates & what to do if your ex does not want to see the children.
Marilyn Stowe, of Stowe Family Law, writes the Marilyn Stowe blog for lawyers & non-lawyers. She has posted recently on past cases, suitably anonymised, Heather Mills & the Saga Divorce.
Sophia Cannon, a barrister at Tooks Court, is the author of The Paramount Principle . Only occasional postings & nothing since October when she posted about the sexual exploitation of children and being a television lawyer. More please!
Clarendon Chambers produce a Family Law Team Update with comments on legislation and case law. The blog seems to have come to a bit of a halt at the beginning of October but what is there is interesting.
