Thursday August 28th

The plumber has only just unblocked the toilet. The mitt damage cost £275.I met my mother on the stairs. She was in a defiant mood. She said, ‘I love Ivan, and he adores me. So try, at least, to be courteous to him, will you?’

I said, ‘Has he seen you without make-up yet?’ She shouted, ‘Yes, he has, and he worships every wrinkle, bag and line! He loves me to bits.’

Ivan came out of the lounge. He was halfway through the Guardian crossword (the difficult one—he does the quick one while he waits for the kettle to boil). He said, ‘I’m enormously aware of the trauma you’re all suffering. Perhaps when things have calmed down a little we can regroup and present ourselves for family therapy, eh?’

I would sooner eat live toads than sit in a circle with him while he drones on about our family’s dysfunction.
