Five minutes later I joined Alison in her car. It was a Mini and it suited her. The number plate was RLC 216 L which sounded like it could be an ego plate, but clearly wasn't. As she started the engine she looked at me and nodded approvingly. 'I like it. But I'm not sure if it'll catch on.'

I pulled the passenger mirror down and studied my reflection. The bleeding was liable to start again with the slightest encouragement, like breathing, so I'd cut an Elastoplast down to a narrow strip and stuck it across the slit in the edge of my left nostril to stop the flow. To keep it in place it arched over the tip of my nose and was secured on the other side.

'It looks suitably mysterious,' said Alison.

'It's practical,' I said. Then I showed her my wristband. 'If anything happens to me, all the relevant information is in here.'

Her brow furrowed as she glanced at the plastic band. 'Anything happens?'

'If I faint or collapse or lose too much blood, it's all in here – my blood group, the fact that I'm allergic to penicillin.'

She nodded. 'Are you expecting to collapse or lose too much blood?'

'Forewarned is forearmed,' I said.
