I don’t know what a tenterhook is. Something to do with tents? I am edgy. I threw a wobbly just now. A tantrum. I banged the kitchen surface with my fist because the tumble dryer keeps turning itself off. A safety mechanism, no doubt, but it does it without warning. and besides I wanted to shout. The news bulletin at 7.00 am talked of one day rail strikes and that’s my safety valve if the car isn’t fixed stymied. I know. I know it isn’t all about me. And I will pull myself together and come up with another strategy. But it’s how to get over those mountains. It feels such a long way from anywhere when you want to escape….
