[ it is always so weird when you talk about anne, because i feel like i knew her, yet i didn't really know her very well at all. what i know is coupled with all the stories and tales you've told me, which always make me wish i had known her better, but i was very shy, i still am, and i think she was quite shy at work, too, and i always felt like i was annoying her or something. (entirely not her fault, but the fault of my own non-existent self-confidence). your talk of journalism being such a sexist man's club ... so true. or true in my experience, anyhow. the GCB was *so* that way. the way the guys would all sit around, droning on with their sexist rubbish, and the way they'd be so condescending to female journos and cadets
