Chapter Six

After breakfast the next morning, my mother announces that we are all going to Doddingflower Summer Fair.

‘And we have to make it look as though we are normal people,’ she instructs me, Dimitri and my dad, before imbibing a mouthful of coffee from her Harry and Meghan Royal Wedding mug.

‘That’s a bit of a big ask,’ I snort.

‘I mean, Isobel,’ she goes on seriously, ‘that we mustn’t make it look like we’re there to garner ideas for the WI garden party.’

‘I didn’t know we were garnering ideas for the WI garden party.’

‘Well, we are.’ She sets down her mug and swipes a stray toast crumb from Prince Harry’s beard. ‘With Dimitri here this year, I feel we should make the party a little more… je ne sais quoi.’

‘If you are liking, Mrs Irveeng, I can be doing the display of the Greek dancing,’ pipes up Dimitri, opposite her at the table in his black thong. ‘I can be giving a little demonstration now, if you are the liking,’ he offers, pushing back his chair.

‘No! No! It’s fine,’ squeaks my mother, holding up her hand in a halt gesture. ‘Your dancing is excellent, Dimitri, but it’s not quite what I’m looking for. To be honest, I’m not going to know what I’m looking for until I find it.’

‘Oh God,’ utters my dad.
