		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m proud to say that The Special One treats me like an adult. It comes as a shock sometimes, given that internally I still feel like the 10 year old putting penny sweets in a paper bag in the local sweetshopcandy store. But for some reason she still insists on talking to me like a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the joys of fatherhood &#8211; whether as a stepfather or as a natural parent &#8211; is the opportunity to see the world with a fresh pair of eyes. I may well be world-weary even at my age, but even something that has become the norm for you can become truly exciting again when [...]]]></description>

After all, there is no reason why the two people managing to take up an entire hallway and preventing anyone from passing should really annoy me.

		<description><![CDATA[I was always fascinated by the idea of being a spy when I was a kid. I think someone bought me a thick red hardback &#8216;spy handbook for kids&#8217; for Christmas one year, and I never looked back from there. Each day I&#8217;d race home from school and pore over it, testing myself to make [...]]]></description>
