WHO: Terence & Anna, Adrian & Patricia, Marcus (& chair), Leo & Lillian (?) WHEN: Saturday evening WHERE: The Estonian, London SUMMARY: A table of teasing and chit chat and amusement RATING: M, for Marcus
Three speeches down, most tables were taking advantage of the brief respites between; some staying on charitable topics that had just been discussed on the dais, some debating possible outcomes of the impending semifinal cup matches, some straying utterly away from either of the evening's topics. Plated desserts were appearing on the tables before them, along with silver buckets of ice and champagne, and Terence poured enough for a toast in glasses for Anna and himself, tipping his own to Marcus. "Cheers to Marcus," he said, "who played dirtier than the rest of us and used it to turn his pastime into a profession. And to Red, who'll hopefully whip his arse next season."
