TUESDAY APRIL 13TH

After Crossroads had finished I asked my father why he had married my mother. Talk about opening the flood-gates! Fifteen years of bitterness and resentment spilled out. He said, ‘Never make the mistake I made, Adrian. Don’t let a woman’s body blind you to her character and habits.’

He explained that he met my mother when miniskirts were in fashion. He said that in those days my mother had superb legs and thighs. He said, ‘You must realize that most women looked bloody awful in miniskirts, so your mother had a certain rarity value.’

I was shocked at his sexist attitude and told him that I was in love with Pandora because of her brains and compassion for lesser mortals. My father gave a nasty laugh and said, ‘Oh yeah! And if Pandora was as ugly as sin you wouldn’t have noticed her bloody IQ and bleeding heart in the first place.’

He ended our first man-to-man talk by saying, ‘Look, kiddo, don’t even think about getting married until you’ve spent a few months sharing a bedroom with a bird. If she leaves her knickers on the floor for more than three days running forget it!’
