Found out recently that my housemate while I was there went on to marry Senator John Edwards who was running for president a few years ago till she developed cancer and he puuled out. She died last year and cut him out of her will because he had an affair.

Can't say that my US sojourn helps much with the quiz - still find the US mindset hard to fathom.
I remember reading about some of the people you met quizzing, did you say you'd met Daphne Fowler?

Her range of knowledge seems vast.

What do you make of her?
