Brezhnev: facelift?

 Hurried morning and took a half day at 12 to look after Piggy.

We had fish and chips and cuddled for an hour. I looked in my Burke's [Peerage] again and planned a letter to Jonathan Margolis. He's at the Mail on Sunday, not the Sunday Express. Near enough.

News: President Brezhnev is in hospital, not for a facelift though he desperately needs one. Are we going to war and to bomb Argentina over the Falkland Islands crisis?

Nothing much tonight. Saw the brilliant George Cole on the telly [Minder]. Bessie phoned after 10pm to announce that Graham and Gill are expecting a baby in November. _________. Later, Graham phoned too. They are moving to Coleford in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, in July.
