Can't recall that much about Diana. She was always with her husband Dennis Hamilton, who died a few years later, generally with a lively party of friends. But in general they just got on with their dinner. Gilbert Harding once, after I had sung, invited me to his table for a glass of champagne ~~ I was quite a pretty young man, I suppose, & he a notorious gay, but he had his own current young man with him & I think he was just being polite & pleasant. He had noticed my Cambridge Christ's College blazer & he was a Queens' man himself. The only conversation with any of the above I remember in any detail is Christopher Lee once telling me in the bar that I should listen to more Wagner.

Didn't mean to drift the thread: sorry ~~ was just making the point about the customers being generally more complaint-worthy from the restaurateur's pov than the food or the service.
