It would have been around 2017. One of my good friends came into the bar
where I usually get my breakfast and had a little Post-It note
with a number on, and a name, Jan Marsalek, and said, "Can you call this fella?
It will be worth your while." Didn't know what it meant at the time.
It's odd, but we might make some money. We'll have a try. So I phoned up and he said to me, "Look. I'm prepared to pay you
a very substantial amount of money to introduce me
to your good friend, Paul Murphy." I said, "I'll talk to Paul." Gary says, "This guy,
Jan Marsalek, is desperate to meet you." "He will get on a plane and come to London
for lunch at the drop of a hat." The immediate thought
was this is some sort of setup. Because it's such a strange,
uh, thing to happen. So I said yes to the lunch
where I usually get my breakfast and had a little Post-It note
with a number on, and a name, Jan Marsalek, and said, "Can you call this fella?
It will be worth your while." Didn't know what it meant at the time.
