Okay, birthday CDs and a good book later (and having attacked the incipient spot and got the satisfyingly rubber nastiness out), I feel a little better. This is the last paragraph of the book that has cheered me up:

"But presently, when Anne is a surgeon with calm eyes and a steady hand, and Pamela perhaps a head-mistress, and Susan a member of Parliament, and Margaret a leisured lady, and Veronica a great psychologist - then it will be Anne and Veronica who share a flat and come home to each other with tales of their day's work, because of that odd knowledge of each other which they have and which both had the courage to follow in spite of the differences between them."

Josephine Elder, Thomasina Toddy 1927.
