Scope and content
A lunch in her honour is the last place she would have expected to meet "one of her greatest heroes". Is so glad he was blackmailed into speaking for "such a rotten cause" as he was funny and calmed her nerves. Would love to come to his house one day and "bring plenty of rotten eggs to throw at poor old Clare". With page of typescript biographical notes on Mary Quant.
