The desperation of the journalist was obvious when he started asking VAE and her sister to provide expert comment on every single topic to be covered in the radio news broadcast. In an attempt to fool his audience, he changed their names each time he needed a new live statement.

I soon had enough of this charade and left. Outside it was nightfall and the Northern Lights were playing across the bay. What a spectacle!

I told TPR everything when we met in the car park. He called me a fool for thinking that the tourist light show at the botanic garden was the Northern Lights. However,  I couldn’t take his criticism seriously when he was dressed in a red bikini under a kaftan. He looked like a very bad version of his sister SMcC in drag.
