Dear Antoine,

I think the occasion is the wedding of Winston Churchill (grandson) to Minnie 
d'Erlanger (now Mrs Minnie Churchill) in July 1964.

Dear Allen,

Excellent news and thanks for this first-hand "Chartwell Report".

Talking of Chartwell, "Jock of Chartwell", the NT facebook facility, has 
released a photo of a family gathering - unfortunately without any key or date.

Could it be a birthday party for the girl sitting between WSC and Randolph ? 
And who is that girl ? Arabella ?

I can identify all the men, except the one above her.

Too many girls and unfamiliar women . . .

Best,

A.C.

Have just come back from the unveiling. A wonderful occasion and no dissent or 
awkward questions from the press. Lady Soames was on fine form, and said that 
this was a great day for her family and country.

This is great news, and much overdue.

At Chartwell today the Governor of the Bank of England announced that WSC will 
appear on the new £5 note. The image will be the most famous Karsh portrait 
taken on Parliament Hill in Ottawa (perhaps fitting given that the next 
Governor of the Bank of England will be a Canadian -- currently working down 
the road from Parliament Hill as Governor of the Bank of Canada).

Against a back drop of the Palace of Westminster, the note will also carry 
WSC's signature and the quotation "I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, 
tears and sweat." It is due to enter circulation in 2016.
