She knew it the moment she realised she’d overslept – yet again.She dashed downstairs to find that Nick had arrived with a large and very beautiful, six foot Christmas tree to go in Mitsy’s sitting room and a small one about two feet high for the study.‘Look what Nick’s brought us, sweetheart,’ Mitsy said as Carole popped into the study to say good morning. ‘Have you seen the one in the sitting room? It’s gorgeous. You must come round after rehearsals tonight Nick, and help us decorate them.’‘I wouldn’t want to be in the way,’ Nick replied, casting a meaningful look in Carole’s direction.‘As if you could ever be in the way,’ Mitsy said. ‘Now don’t argue with me. You’re coming and that’s that.’‘Gran, you can’t force people to do things they don’t want to,’ Carole said. ‘Besides, Nick might have plans for tonight, and aren’t you forgetting that Dominic will be here?’‘No, I hadn’t forgotten that. Sarah’s making up the spare front bedroom for him.’Carole saw Nick’s raised eyebrows and the huge grin on his face.
