Secret SANTA

I’m in a book group. Joe, my husband, says I only go for the chat and the wine, but that’s not true. I might be a stay-at-home wife, not a detective sergeant, but I have aspirations. I was flattered when I was invited to join and I’ve been a member for two years now.

At first, I felt way out of my depth. Claire, who hosts, is head teacher of a primary school, and her husband does something fancy in IT, and travels all over the world. She hates it when Bob’s away. You can tell because she’s often on the phone to him when we arrive for the meeting. I think it’s lovely that they’re so close after all
