There were no J seats available so I ended up in Y.

The entire F cabin watched as I handed my champagne glass back to the FA, collected my bags from the overhead and moved down the aircraft.

I could tell from some of the looks that people thought I shouldn't have been there.
Amazing that they could boot you out as you were enjoying a pre flight drink.
