1. I sat down on the bench at Finsbury Park tube. I found myself sitting next to Ed Balls. He was reading a folder of documents. I didn't peek.
  2. We got on the train. I found a seat. Two women opposite me pointed and giggled at him. I nodded my head. "It's him, isn't it?" They asked.
  3. "Yes," I answered. "What's his name again?" They asked. "Ed Balls," I mouthed. "Ed Balls!" They whispered to each other gleefully.
  4. Ed sat and read The Financial Times. I got off at Oxford Circus. I don't know where Ed Balls gets off. Godspeed, Ed Balls.
