The true cross that every anonymous blogger has to bear is that most people don't know (or indeed care) who they are.

Why, come nine o'clock that evening, was I hurtling down the road to the nearest pub to wave my debit card at them (I always forget to bring enough cash to weddings) and ask for a pack of cigarettes in return?

I once took a second date to an album launch in a members club in Mayfair, only to find he could not be trusted around the surprise royal guest, finally being ejected by security for trying to 'touch' Prince Harry.

If you ever join the ritual of the Sunday cruise, remember: drive up the Prom survey the 'talent' on offer, then turn at the end with maximum flourish. Repeat as desired, or until darkness falls and the girls go home.

He is taller than I thought he would be, his dirty-blond hair slicked into a side parting, and wearing a white T-shirt with a wide crew neck which grazes his collar bone.

A confession: The Beau is back on my radar if not yet in my bed.
