Breaking up is hard to do. Especially when he''s left his wife for you . . .

What to do if Matthew, your secret lover of the past four years, finally decides to leave his wife Sophie and their two daughters and move into your flat, just when you''re thinking that you might not want him anymore . .

PLAN A: Stop shaving your armpits. And your bikini line. Tell him you have a moustache that you wax every six weeks. Stop having sex with him. Pick holes in the way he dresses. Don''t brush your teeth. Or your hair. Or pluck out the stray hag-whisker that grows out of your chinBuy incontinence pads and leave them lying around.

PLAN B: Accidentally on purpose bump into his wife Sophie. Give yourself a fake name and identity. Befriend Sophie. Actually begin to really like Sophie. Snog Matthew''s son (who''s the same age as you by the wayYou''re not a paedophile). Buy a cat and give it a fake name and identity. Befriend Matthew''s children. Unsuccessfully. Watch your whole plan go absolutely horribly wrong.
