the only property I’m ever likely to be able to afford as a first-time buyer is a converted Portaloo.’
‘Hol, you’re all good now, you can leave it there…’ Olivia said.
‘I’m going to get another drink then. Can I get you one?’ Holly said, but Olivia was now engaged in an intense and prolonged session of eye contact with Jonny.
‘You OK?’ Harry asked, following Holly to the fridge.

‘Did you know that Bella and Liv have formed something they’re calling a “Break-up Club”? Liv keeps saying it’s just a joke, but I think it’s sort of become real, through necessity. Bella says they meet up, just the two of them, every Sunday night.’

‘I couldn’t be surer about Rachel and me.’
Oh yes, Rachel, she remembered, lifting her head off Harry’s shoulder. ‘Sshhh, show-off,’ she said, prodding him in the stomach.
‘Ow! Well, to be brutally honest, Hol, it sounds to me like you’ve heard the bell.’
