I first met Tony about nine years ago when he and my friend Susie became the talk of Risinghurst when they left their respective partners and moved in together. What a scandal!

Tony has made Susie so happy (even though he claims they're not speaking today) - it's a firey relationship but undoubtedly a happy, contented one. Today Tony became a grandad which Susie is very upset about - she feels cheated, telling me she chose a toy boy so she could carry on behaving like a teenager and now she feels she has to be all responsible.

He kindly agreed to knock my kitchen about even though it's really difficult for him to work all this way away from home. It's coming on a treat though.
