Nick Lake: Hello. My name is Nick Lake, and it's become a bit of an unfortunate name actually because it sounds, over the phone, very similar to the name Nick Clegg, who is the Deputy Leader of the ruling party here in Britain, and was very popular when they first came into power, which meant that when I called for tables at restaurants and things I seemed to get very good tables very quickly, but sadly now, it has become very unpopular, and so I spend a lot of time on the phone having to say, "No. Not Nick Clegg. Nick Lake." And then have to spell it out saying L-A-K-E.
