At least once a week I (Sally) indulge myself in an escapism fantasy – it’s the same almost every time. I imagine leaving behind the commitment to rent, work and next week’s dinner plans, throwing my bathers and a towel in a bag and hitting the road in search of rivers, lakes, beaches, natural pools and watering holes.
