  • Deborah De Cristofaro - She was my best friend, but I never really felt like she liked me that much, which was always a bit rubbish. She had a dog called Rommel and the nicest family I have ever met.Her mum was awesome. I remember her dad taught her to type fast because he wanted her to be a secretary.
  • Sarah McGurk - All she did was search for boys and get me into trouble, but she taught me a lot about friendship, and we always had a laugh together. Her mother was insane, though. Still is.
  • Christopher Sessford - He was really my cousin's best friend, but we used to play catchy kissy all the time. He was the first person I ever 'fancied', and we used to take th mickey out of him and call him Sexy Sesssford.
