Dex excused himself to go to the men’s. Johnny had just brought out petit fours, witnessed us demolish them in minutes, and announced that the night was over. People started standing up and getting themselves together. There was a flurry of scraping stool legs and downing of dregs from glasses. The waitress girl packed up leftovers into posh, brown cardboard doggy bags, and I gave her a hand; there were an awful lot of scallops left over. Audrey was scowling again. She had obviously not got lucky, even with Edward. There would be no strolling round the Old Town with him, any time soon.

Dex reappeared. Anthony, who hadn’t got lucky either, by the look of it, came ambling over. He was super polite and had a very, very posh accent. Totally pissed though. He regaled us with the tale of his tiramisu, which remarkably resembled a cocoa-dusted puddle; it was still sitting on the island, glaring at him accusingly. I laughed and as I laughed, Dex kept looking at me and I kept looking at him. I was doing coy smiling under my eyelashes that Princess Diana would have been proud of. I wondered when he would ask for my contact details.

I looked around for Simon and Sam, who were obviously in no hurry to leave - I spotted them snogging, in front of the Aga. She was clearly putting everything into it. She had her hand in his back pocket and was stroking his bum; he had cocoa powder in his hair.

I decided I didn’t really like Anthony, despite the funny pudding story. He seemed a bit sleazy and I kept catching him staring at my boobs, his face all red.

‘Don’t mind Anthony,’ said Dex. ‘He’s had a skinful.’

‘It’s okay,’ I said, smiling at Dex. So he had a bit of a dickish friend? I could forgive him that. He was perfect in every other way.

Finally, Johnny managed to usher us out.

‘Come on people,’ he boomed, as he walked past us unravelling his apron. ‘Let’s get you on your way. I’ve got an X-Box and a huge pizza to get home to.’
