A sunny couple of hours walking in Knole Park with my chums.

1991: The person who would become my partner discovered his wife had moved another man into their home. That union so abruptly terminated, he moved into my flat. I met his sons for the first time, aged 10 and 15. They were understandably upset and angry, they walked straight past me and I would never hold that against them. Looking back now I realise I had suddenly arrived at sixth place in a pecking order of six.
