‘Haiti is a poverty-stricken land of urban overpopulation, denuded hillsides and a people suffering the wounds of civil strife and oppression.’

‘The place I’m going is a new resort, miles away from any denuded hillsides and civil strife,’ I say. ‘It was in the Sunday Times Magazine the other week, one of the upcoming places to be this year.’

‘Ooh, you lucky cow. Wish I was going away somewhere nice. All Rob and I have to look forward to is twelve years of Center Parcs.’

‘They can be fun.’

‘Yeah, I suppose,’ Sharon’s voice trails off as she studies grainy images of UN stabilisation forces.

By the time Bryn offers to brave the rain and collect lunch all talk of my holiday in the axis of evil is forgotten.

Dopey Penny puts in an appearance to remind us about her sponsored silence. Once more, people ask how much to make it permanent. She giggles and says we’re awful. It must be lovely to go through life being so completely unaware of what is going on around you.

I’m tucking into a chicken cesar salad and mooching through a showbiz gossip website when a mail arrives from Ian Tyler.
