Highlights of the north east coast of the Isle of Skye (Rousse)
My mother’s Volvo was not a self-driving car, yet when the whole the family was crammed into the back seat, we treated it as such. I was terrified as we sped through the countryside at top speeds, praying that the … Continue reading

The qualified homeless (Rousse)
Homeless, I lived in my car. When I was fortunate to find an empty flat, I would sneak in there to use the shower and prepare for job interviews. One day a young woman asked about my prospects of employment. … Continue reading

Hugh Grant’s wife spills sex story beans (Rousse)
On the spot I volunteered to give the address at the end of the University reunion dinner. What better subject than the sexual exploits of two girls from my hall of residence, now respectable grown women, and seated before me … Continue reading

A dance and a devil in the dark (Rousse)
Although we shared the same living space, our marriage was over, and TPR couldn’t care less if I went home with a strange man after the dance. My ‘man’ wasn’t that strange, although it had to be said that his … Continue reading

Foxy pet (Rousse)

Bitch confronts idiot (Rousse)
