“I wanted to know if Martyn and Spry were involved at all. In a really tight group like theirs it’s hard to tell the couples. They were one of those groups that’s as tight as couples. That’s something I had missed out on; not that I would have complained, I preferred meeting random people all the time, and staying available for new relationships, rather than feeling stuck with the same few people. But still, watching that group play cards, I wondered what that kind of closeness was like.”
