Fame! I'm gonna live forever! Swish Cottage has been reviewed in the Sydney Morning Herald and the Melbourne Age, as part of an article about gay blogs:

Swish Cottages
Clubbing, pub trivia nights and Michael's fabulous party on Saturday night: just another day in the life of London-based blogger David. His favourite hangout is the Vauxhall Tavern; he's even written an A-Z of what he loves about it.

"F is for five o'clock, four quid, full, fags, fashion, Fred Perrys, footie kit, fraternising with friends, fancying, flirting ..."

When not socialising madly, he complains about middle-management meetings and lets you know what he thinks of the latest CD releases.

For that uniquely British touch, he offers the London Sun's "real story" on British soldiers in Afghanistan: "Troops were shocked when they were targeted by frisky fellas wearing PINK LIPSTICK, NAIL POLISH and PERFUME."

A page of photographs gives the impression of random moments from a day wandering around London.

Follow the link to his friend Marcus' site, where you'll find review of Kylie Minogue's London concert and another perspective on David.
Thank you to Amanda and David for pointing this article out to me. If anyone has a printed copy of the article and could scan it for me, I'd be very, very grateful.
