A lot of them are digital wanderers running their service from here because it's lovely, with the jungle, the beaches and the quality of life.

'Honestly, I don't think I can ever forgive individuals responsible, although we have actually made every effort to forget it, and them, as rapidly as possible.'

She included: 'This was adding insult to serious injury and bearing in mind my progressive decrease in health generally, I was truly beginning to anguish.'
