1. Are you a male or female: Red shoes, red nail varnish…yes, I’m a bloke.
2. Describe yourself: Snow White with roots – plan [...]

Son (to shiny new boyfriend): I want a brother.
Shiny new boyfriend (to son): Oh that’s nice.
Me (trying to change subject): So what do you two fancy for supper?

There was no envelope, just a scrappy piece of lined paper, which had obviously been torn straight out of a school jotter. Intrigued by the title I unfolded it, unsure of what I would find.
