‘I was in the newsagent’s, and I picked up Poise!, and I’ve just finished reading your spread on Life Swap. I’m in shock. Are you seriously going to do this?’‘I don’t know why you’re so surprised,’ Vicky says in a huff. ‘After all, it was your idea.’‘What do you mean it was my idea?’‘You said that thousands of women would love to swap lives with me, that the grass was always greener.’‘Well yes, but I didn’t expect you to actually go ahead and do it! Who do you think will respond anyway? I’d never do something like that. Would anyone normal do something like that?’‘For God’s sake, Kate!’ Vicky practically shouts. ‘You were the one saying you’d give your eye teeth to have my life.’‘Yes, but I was just saying it. I wasn’t actually planning on doing it! Although I have to give credit to myself – it is a brilliant idea. Unless of course you get complete nutcases answering, in which case it could be a bit dangerous. But I’m dying to find out what kind of women write in.
