relationship is going, so it is better just to go with a friend.

Apart from sex, I say. Apart from sex, he agrees. I'm going to meet Tom
tonight with brochures to plan fantasy, or phantom mini-break. So I must work
really hard this afternoon.

12.40 p.m. These shorts and T-shirt are too uncomfortable in this heat. I'm going
to change into a long floaty dress.

Oh dear, my pants show through this dress now. I'd better put some flesh-
coloured ones on in case someone comes to the door. Now, my Gossard Glossies
ones would be perfect. I wonder where they are.

12.45 p.m. In fact think might put the Glossies-bra on to match if I can find it.

12.55 p.m. That's better.

1 p.m. Lunchtime! At last a bit of time off.

2 p.m. OK, so this afternoon I am really going to work and get everything done
before the evening, then can go out. V. sleepy, though. It's so hot. Maybe I'll just
close my eyes for five minutes. Catnaps are said to be an excellent way of
reviving oneself. Used to excellent effect by Margaret Thatcher and Winston
Churchill. Good idea. Maybe I'll lie down on the bed.
