I had regular Pilates this evening, and comparing it to Mel’s session is just making it seem worse and worse! Because I know I’ll ache tomorrow and, frankly, I don’t want to have to wear leggings, knickers, top and a sports bra any more than I have to.

I had lunch with Ha today and she teased me a bit about Friday night and Saturday morning. She said she’d be really happy if I wanted to move into the spare room because having a naked woman around was so much fun. I wouldn’t even have to pay rent, she said, as long as I was happy to cook and clean for them. I told her that she should be so lucky, and she said maybe I could skip cooking, for two days a week. I threatened her with a slap, but it was all in good fun. But still it also feels very flirty.
