“How are you today?” My plastic surgeon says, beaming his huge smile. “Yeah, OK I think,” I say. “Oh, I’m sorry – I forgot my device. Mum’s just signing in – there was a queue and…” “Don’t worry, Tanya, I’ve got a spare one,” the nurse says, reaching into the depths of her trolley and […]
“So, at the guide dog centre, they’re showing us around,” MediaChap says. “They bring one of the studs out to meet us. And he’s a gorgeous big yellow Labrador but he’s in a bad mood: usually when he comes out of his room it’s to mate, and now he’s got to meet a whole lot […]
Before leaving the house for tonight’s date with MediaChap, need to: 1. Have bath and even wash hair. 2. Clean contact lenses: am one of the last people in the world who still wears gas-permeable lenses.

“You’re not going to make it to the office tomorrow,” the panther says. “You’ve been asleep almost all weekend, when you’re awake you’re crying and…” “You’re wrong,” I tell him. “Am looking forward to getting my teeth into some Work tomorrow.” “You’ll be late, your boss will be cross with you. Just stay here with […]
“Puppy power,” the WhatsApp message arrives. It’s from MediaChap. Opening it, I see a basket of golden Labrador puppies. “Puppy love,” the next message says and a puppy is pushing a wet nose towards me. “Ahhhh puppies. What do you do with them?” I say. “Hug them and look after them,” MediaChap replies. “Where are […]
“There’s a bit of a problem in your bedroom,” Dad says, as we arrive at the parental home. “A man’s been round to look at it and he says we need to get everything out of there and then he’ll see what we can do and…” “What’s happened?” I say. “We can’t…I mean that will […]
“Hi,” the WhatsApp message dances across my screen. It’s from NewChap – the one from Richmond. Our second date is tonight. “Massively busy at work so need to postpone tonight. The rest of the week looks no better, can we do next week?” Looking at the time on my phone, I see that it’s 5pm […]
