James and Kirsty

James | Kirsty
Any awkward moments?
She got caught trying to go through the tube gates on my Oyster card, and she fell down the stairs.
Good table manners?
Great!
Good table manners?
That’s a bourgeois idea.
It would perhaps be unfair to paint Kirsty as joyless – although she does a pretty good job of that herself. Her staccato responses to all the journo’s questions and a REFUSAL to even answer the all-important question – not even a cop-out “impeccable” – suggest there is something we haven’t been told.
I include James’s account of Kirsty sneaking through the ticket barrier because it explains a lot. Although I’m not sure what.
