What’s your most vivid memory from being a grad trainee? Well, not as a trainee but as a junior PR account executive at Kysen PR, I remember being dispatched to Wells Street to collect some back copies of The Lawyer so we could send cuttings to clients – in the time before online publishing! This was also in the days of the Tulkinghorn column, and I was genuinely terrified that I would bump into the enigmatic and all-powerful Cat Griffiths, do something stupid and end up being ‘Tulked’. I’m in a cold sweat just thinking about it even now.
