That's exactly what happened to me when I was 27..

She was 7 or 8 years older, and a well off TV producer from Hong Kong...

I was a skint, skinny, arty farty post grad student...

Never mind, at least I got a few good hot meals from a damn fine Chinese restaurant
[just off Leicester square]
out of the affair...
