An affirmation
The other day I heard from a Facebook friend who had met someone who remembered me from a long-ago women’s weekend in Bruges (when apparently, I was very sick on the Channel crossing to Zeebrugge). Any road, as they say in the Midlands where I come from, this friend of a friend remarked that I was a ‘real character’. I can’t help feeling flattered by that; it has long been my ambition to be eccentric, and now it seems I already was 25 years ago, without even trying. Nice.
