I am sorry for the confusion, my loyal readership. It was all about the song and not so much about the band. I went on a blissful escape from everything familiar to me, boarded a plane and went to visit my email pal, Susan. I went to Susan’s House and she did make it right.

I experienced something us mothers are not usually partial to – SOMEONE LOOKING AFTER OUR NEEDS. Susan cooked for me, cleaned up my mess – Susan your house is immaculate and spotless – not a SPOT to be found, gave up her bedroom and her bathroom for me while she slept in her daughter’s room on the floor and her husband slept on the couch – I will never forgive myself for this….ok yes I will, made me a million cups of tea, BOUGHT MY FAVOURITE BISCUITS I WILL SAY A SPECIAL PRAYER THAT ALLAH GRANTS HER JANNAH FOR THIS ALONE, made me lie down, brought me magazines, took me to the movies and gossiped (halal kind of course), drove me to my hotel, to and from the airport WHICH IS AN HOUR AWAY MELBOURNE IS TOO BIG A CITY HONESTLY HOW CAN SOMETHING BE AN HOUR AWAY AND STILL BE IN THE SAME CITY MADNESS I TELL YOU.

Everyone should go to Susan’s house.

Edit – what I MEANT to say is everyone should have a friend just like Susan but NOT HER BECAUSE SHE IS MINE.
