When I was 21, I came to live in London. I shared a camp basement flat with a beautiful ex art student from Brighton. Her name was Sam. She had long brown hair and a slim figure that I was madly jealous of. She ate three chocolate bars for breakfast every morning. I used to be in bad looking at her eating and getting dressed, wondering how she could possibly consume so much sugar without losing her teeth, her figure or her complexion.

Like me, she was just an art teacher in a secondary school.
