I saw Jesus in the street today. He wasn't your heavy metal Jesus, all girlie hair with a beard and tight trousers to show he's a man. He was a hip-hop hoodie with love scratched on arms walking like his hips were ships in a storm. And I knew a door had opened for me.

Alex, in neat underused track suit and as yet unsullied morning coffee said, 'What?'
'American is lemon and sugar with tap water but British is with sparkling water.'
Still draining the coffee, Alex hesitated and said, 'Er...why the dif-
