I had an opportunity to finally take Philippa out for a walk down a local seafront (Bray) a few weeks ago. A tv friend offered to be the male partner and we walked the length of the front.
I was freezing, terrified and exhilarated! I had to change, do my make-up and organise myself all in the back of her car. Not the most ideal setting, but nobody laughed or pointed at me and the walk gave me confidence for the inevitable next time. The blouse I got in Dunne's that day, the coat in TK Maxx, also that day. I wasn't organised, but it was a great experience. |
