…and despite my cliched beginning, I have managed to include:

–women’s weight lifting
–a litre of spilled milk
–a lovelorn Greek called Spiros
–a troublemaking kid called Vince
–a pink suitcase
–turquoise toenails
–a knickerless heroine
–Botticelli’s Venus and Mars
–the adjective “post-coital”
–the noun “cow-dom”

This is not bad.

   Cowdom? COWDOM? Oh, that’s hysterical. (And you do know *my* suitcase is pink, doncha? vbg)

   See, what did I tell you? This isn’t a cliche book. It’s going to be great fun.

   We were probably watching the same random cable channel, Jude?

   I can quite honestly say I probably will never get a mutton pie into my work, Kate A.

   My heroine has probably stolen your pink suitcase, Kate H.

   Yes, Liz, in MX we get to have knickerless heroines. Though personally I would prefer the AP undies.

   Waves to Michelle, Biddy, and Danica
