It
was the evening following publication of The
Butler Report and, at last, Tony could let his
hair down, and what better than at a party Majesty
had thrown at the Palace?
The
party had gone well... It was 10:32 and Majesty
half jokingly, but half deadly seriously, challenged
her Prime Minster to a shrimp nibbles and champagne
eating contest. "As much as you can eat
in five minutes, no dribbling, no spitting,
normal rules", Majesty suggested, a sparkle
in her eye. Tony accepted. He was invincible.
He was tip of the top and nothing was going
to defeat him ever again! (To be continued...)
