Mad.
Yeah.
But I loved it.
And then Katie went off to Heatherley Art School and I wanted to continue, but I didn't, thought I can't do it on my own.
So it just petered out, you know.
And then I did another business a few years later called Socket to You.
I went and worked in the city.
So tell me how that happened because that feels so not you.
So not me, but it was what my dad did.
So I think I was still at a stage of wanting to impress my dad because I wasn't great at school and I didn't in the end go to university.
I thought, how can I prove that I can get a career?
So I started as an assistant assistant.
I started as a PA to somebody in a commodities physical trading house.
And then from that, I then went and worked in a fund.
But I was a salesperson in an Anglo-American commodities fund.
So it was me.
It was 55 men.
I was probably the only woman trying to sell commodity funds.
And it was a kind of time of trading places, that film.
You know, it was really the arse end of the city.
