Doreen, my secretary, came in today to help clear up the mess in my office so that I can leave it nicely tidy when I go abroad next week, with hands little better than flippers it is almost impossible for me to pick up papers and doing any filing.

I seem to have spent us to a few days sending off sponsorship forms for the Great London Swim – See the Special Entry at the top of the Diary, so, at the end of a long and exhausting day, Tristan (Frampton) popped in with a couple of bottles of decent champagne after which I felt considerably more relaxed.
