"Leaving the house for her blind date with the mysterious Doctor Andrew, 43 year old Ella was a wild, untamed gypsy goddess, but sitting outside Chequers, sipping cold coffee, she wonders why her reflection reminds her so much of Ken Dodd." A tale of men, women, and desperation. Also includes the bonus story, "Adrift," a short tale of marital decay and the inevitable carcrash of a child leaving home. ------------------------------------------
