Daily trivia
This is Emma in her twenties. A yummy mummy. Whenever I had a hard day at the chalk-face. Whenever senior management gave me a hard time, I had one major consolation. I had the same consolation when our friendly neighbourhood burglar borrowed my computer and a full year’s lesson plans. And what do you suppose consoled me when the car broke down in the middle of nowhere? And when the bill for its recovery and repair dropped through the letterbox. Or when the wicked witch from the North assumed power in 1979. And when that unspeakable whore Clegg climbed into bed with little Lord Cameron. Through all of life’s trials and tribulations, major and minor, one thought has always sustained me. And it’s not the vague religious conviction that Someone is looking after me, and that all will come right in the end. What really consoles me, and always has, is that tonight I’ll be fucking Emma.
