I get up to leave and glance at the man who I've been watching out of the corner of my eye all night who is none of the above but short, bald, twinkly-eyed, smooth and, as I finally see his face, Brian Eno.

I give up.
I'm taking up tapestry or bee-keeping or something, going on a diet, becoming a recluse. I surrender.
