Roger approached me the other day to ask a favour - apparently he wants someone to accompany him to the annual OddDealers [a local trade association] dinner which is scheduled for mid-September. I agreed as long as I could choose a suitable dress from the shops and he'd buy me a new pair of evening shoes as I very much doubt Birkenstocks would fit the bill.
Since the failure of his one man show 'Roger The Raconteur' he's been very subdued - even his personal tuition service work is drying up - there are far fewer young men leaving his flat in the evening then there used to be, which is a shame. When I asked him what he taught he stated 'business acumen and personal grooming' which is a rather strange thing to be teaching in this day and age but I suppose it takes all sorts. They must engage in a fair amount of role play scenarios because I hear some rather bizarre noises emanating from the flat whilst he's teaching.
Emma's coming over later - the awful Connor's finally dumped her so she'll require a shoulder to cry on. I've bought two bottles of wine and three pipes of Pringles which should oil the wheels somewhat. I've even splashed out on a Wall's Vienetta which undoubtedly shows what a kind friend indeed I am. Hurrah for me!
