I have two tables in a sqlite3 DB, PostModel and TopicModel. The PostModel 
has fields id, post, author, pub_date and topicid. This last fields topicid 
has a foreignkey to the other table Postmodel. PostModel has the fields id, 
topic.
There is a one-to-many relation from the TopicModel to the PostModel. So a 
Topic can have many posts but a post can only have one topic.
I would like to create query the PostModel to get the latest post for each 
topicid.
So something like, SELECT PostModel.topicid WHERE date_pub is the latest. 
But i would like to use the Django Query API not SQL.
My models look like this,

class TopicModel(models.Model):
    topic = models.CharField(max_length=300)
    extra = models.CharField(max_length=100)

    def __str__(self):              # __unicode__ on Python 2
            return self.topic

class PostModel(models.Model):
    post = HTMLField(blank=True)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')
    author = models.CharField(max_length=30)
    topicid = models.ForeignKey(TopicModel, related_name = 'topicThing')

    def __str__(self):              # __unicode__ on Python 2
            return self.post

Here is the view

def thread(request, id):
    if request.method == "POST":
        print 'we are inside POST'
        pk = id
        tform = get_object_or_404(TopicModel, pk=id)
        Pform = PostForm(request.POST)
        if Pform.is_valid():
            # tform = Tform.save(commit=False)
            pform = Pform.save(commit=False)
            pform.topicid = tform
            # pform.topicid = pk
            pform.author = request.user
            pform.pub_date = timezone.now()
            pform.save()
            # return redirect('post_detail', pk=post.pk)
            return redirect('thread', id)
    else:
        pk=id
        pModel = reversed(PostModel.objects.all().filter(topicid_id=pk))
        postform = PostForm()
    return render(request, 'thread.html', {'pModel': pModel, 'postform' : 
postform})

Thanks
