Anti-natal: Zoe Williams on that question ‘Is it your first?’ - The Guardian 31st October 2008

I went to a gig last night … why am I lying? It’s stupid. I went to a public meeting at the TUC building last night, at which there happened to be music, and the music there happened to be was by the folk artist Eliza Carthy, who is very pregnant. I identified with her strongly, because she looked fine from the front, but then from the side, especially when she danced, she looked like a sofa being electrocuted. What an amazing musician she is. Though if she were ever to read this, she wouldn’t notice that bit, she’d just be thinking, “How dare that bitch call me a sofa?”
