First, a retraction.
Firstly (as promised) here is a retraction of my first e-mail, to my new friend Deidre who is not at all boring. And does not wear socks and sandles, and is definitely not a fuzzy old hippy!
Diedre is Irish - hense the name, is not much older than me, is a bloody good laugh, and has very nice hair (which she is a bit precious about - luckily - she brought a hairdryer and straighteners - lifesaver!!!!)
Deidre is also a saint, as you can imagine she would have to be to share a room with me for 10 days, she had to put up with my :-
Snoring
Farting in bed
Coughing like I belonged in a T.B. hospital
Hacking up crap (because of my cough)
Spitting crap down the toilet
Bitching
Moaning
Alarm clock going off every day 30 mins before we had to get up
I was much more of a pain in the arse than I normally am because I was sick, but she put up with it with a smile on her face, Cheers Deidre!!!!
