2. It's secret Santa time at the office. I am delighted by mine -- it's a red satin handbag and some pearls and a box of chocolates. I am particularly touched when Mandy says that it came from the delivery driver, who I've never even met before. I'm going to look out for a matching red dress.

I can feel him getting heavier and softer, and we sit in silence until he falls asleep.

3. I do like a cold chicken sandwich with mango chutney and lettuce.
