> Tony, and beside him is Chrissi; they've just emerged from behind a
> curtain together. That's me with the orangey hair, black clothes and
> Nicky Wire eyeliner (and the grey rucksack- had that since I was five,
>
> it has sentimental value), and I'm talking to Dickon- or rather,
> staring

> rare occurence of perfect timing, the couple appear through the
> curtain
> just as I explain I've lost them... They look pretty happy. I look
> small
> and overwhelmed. And Dickon looks like he doesn't know WHAT he's

> Although I don't know it yet, I will have met a few of my closest
> friends-to-be tonight. They're just out of shot.
