Describing her relationship with Jimmy to her close friend Helena, Alison recounts an event that took place shortly after their marriage in a flashback:
Alison: For the first time in my life, I was cut off from the kind of people I’d always known, my family, my friends, everybody. And I’d burnt my boats. After all those weeks of brawling with Mummy and Daddy about Jimmy, I knew I couldn’t appeal to them without looking foolish and cheap. It was just before the General Election, I remember, and Nigel was busy getting himself into Parliament. He didn’t have time for anyone but his constituents. Oh, he’d have been sweet and kind, I know.
