They sent me the coach fare.
Yes.
Still a beautiful phrase that lightens my heart every time I hear it.
And by this point, I'd read Maureen Lipman's biography.
I thought this was a good way to study what life in London would be like.
And she made it, she was like, every time you meet someone, you must give them a present.
You know, just like a lovely box of chocolates or some flowers or something.
But this is what we do in London.
We give each other gifts.
Yes.
So I'd made a huge cream cake at home and I'd put it in a small red suitcase that I'd bought at a jumble sale and I carried it down to London.
It didn't have a handle so you had to carry it horizontally and I carried this cake all the way down to London to present to the people at the Observer to make them like me.
And it was the middle of summer.
And by the time I finally got there and opened up this suitcase, the cream had just turned into just sour cheese.
And the room was just filled with this terrible smell.
And I was just like, I'm so sorry that I appear to have bought you a vomit cake.
But this was initially an act of love.
Please like me.
And they did like me enough to give me a column for the rest of the summer holidays.
That was not part of the prize.
