Blimey Marina Hyde just asked a very good question.

I wasn't friends with anyone at school 4 years above me. Were you?

So why IS he pretending they were friends at school.

Martin Bright was one year ahead of me at school. He doesn't know me from Adam.

:-)

Update: Political Scrapbook just mentioned that David Cameron's brother is a lawyer who was also at Eton  - and he is older than David, so is more likely to have been friends with Charlie Brooks.

The recomendations on his website are also endlessly entertaining  ...
