Isn't it amazing how that detached bit helps you deal with stressful situations. It just seems that part of your mind has to go somewhere else to find a solution. Just be aware that, at some point, you may have to curl up in a corner and howl, or something similar. It would be natural and, so long as you are aware of what is happening and why, can be quite theraputic.

I'm glad that all ended well and hope that you don't have to give evidence. As for the press - I think that they must have to have a conscience removal before being allowed to do the job.
