Paul McCartney, Nick Rhodes, Laura Parker-Bowles, Tom Hollander, Frederick Forsythe, Nicky Haslam...
THE CHAT: Dimpled bottoms - was Velazquez the first man ever to depict cellulite? Would anyone pluck up the courage to talk to McCartney? And if so, would "What were you thinking?
" be deemed inappropriate?
WE ATE: Farmhouse chic - mini ham sandwiches with fried eggs on top, large plates of organic English ham, bangers and mash tarts.
