Grief is like mending a knee. You can mend the knee and make it function, but the knee never actually heals.
Working in the shop has taught me how utterly ridiculous the female fear of knees is. It’s a bloody knee. It’s bone. We can’t control our knees, our knees are not our fault. We cannot let this continue, we have to abandon this ridiculous new obsession and set the knee free.
I know about the sweet home. I went to school with ’em boys, what became Lynyrd Skynyrd; I knew Allen Collins, the skinny girl-beautiful guitarist. I put Allen Collins in every travel piece I do. Travel writing is harrowing, going to Bermuda with a banjo on my knee.

As a youngster, my mother and father always drilled into my head having something to fall back on. My father was kind of funny. I’d score 40 points. I’d come home and say, ‘Look dad, I scored 40.’ He’d never have a smile on his face. He’d be like, ‘I saw that move you did. What if you’d hurt your knee?’
I’ll never forget the dance number that I shot with Anushka. The choreography involved a lot of intricate dance moves. I’m at least 7 inches shorter than Anushka, so I had to wear the highest heels I’ve ever worn in my life; throughout the song, I even injured my knee a couple of times.
