There weren't that many people there. In his eulogy the vicar referred to the 'good Tony' and the 'bad Tony' which was a bit odd. Chris Welch was there and so was Roy Hollingworth, oddly. It was the last time I saw Roy before he died.

He took me to one of those Knightsbridge parties once during which he revealed another side to his otherwise affable nature - this was masking a vicious temper which he obviously couldn't control - it manifested itself when one of the girls chucked a cushion at him with playful intent but it caught him sharply on the face and dislodged THOSE specs - he went apeshit and had to be restrained from knocking 7 kinds out of this poor girl- needless to say we had no choice but to leave.John Halsallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03985912381659835249noreply@blogger.com
