Lansdowne is to pursue banking duties in The City. If you go along the Bayswater Road in a bus (unlikely) you can see their kitchen tap at a certain point on the first floor of an imposing flats&#8217; block. \u00a0Sit on top of bus for best view. Rocky&#8217;s self-designed stationery is now available in 200 stores across the USA. He will fly back and forth to tend the business. They dined with Ralph Kitto at my home. I forgot to mention that Rocky declared Zara and Topman highly credible. We agreed the high-end designers dull and finished. Quel change! Some years ago, when it emerged that a Gay had spent \u00a370 on swimming trunks (when \u00a370 was a sum of money), Rocky pronounced, &#8216;Well, it&#8217;s a whole outfit.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Rocky, who&#8217;s some hunk, was looking hot in Gap white jeans, figure-hugging.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve remembered at last what Harry Rollo said about his mother&#8217;s Chinese millionaire friend. She is a bit of a ringer for Nancy Lam, the TV cook. \u00a0When she&#8217;s on (Nancy, that is), they&#8217;re always having to cut to adverts in a hurry because of her awful language on mid-morning live telly. Sebastian Archer, partner of Robert Nevil, who used to occupy a massive executive position in the Pony Club, once went to see Nancy re: her being given a complimentary pony for publicity purposes. She approached with meat cleaver, saying, &#8216;Pony no use to me.&#8217; Well, Harry Rollo&#8217;s mother&#8217;s Chinese millionaire friend also has hatchet way of talking and has cleaved the human race into two halves, either &#8216;genius&#8217; or &#8216;moron&#8217;, both rapped out with contempt.<\/p>\n<p>Some weeks ago Val texted, possibly while lightly sauced: he&#8217;d been viewing a programme about cruises. You may remember we went on a cruise in April on a non-paying basis. At one point in the cruise programme a couple fulfilled a cherished wish to renew their vows on board. Val said, &#8216;What was missing from our cruise was that we didn&#8217;t renew our vows. Mine to kill a Tory. Yours to kill the Pussies.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>I said to Val, &#8216;But I killed the Pussies years ago. Look at them now. They&#8217;ve both on Prozac.&#8217; Recently in Chipping Camden Val had a chance to run over Sam Cam but missed it.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget the new Poor Little Rich Gay Campaign: &#8216;Val for the Lords&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>On Monday we&#8217;ll have news of the Multis, before going on to practical affairs: the preservation of perfumes in hot weather, gardening and summer menus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday 3rd August 2013 This time next week will have gained Tuscany.
