 Moorhouse Inn

HRH The Princess Anne is 35, and Gary Booth is 22. HRH is cruising on Britannia in the Western Isles as she usually does on her birthday, and Mark (Phillips) is at Gatcombe Park astride his tractor. What a separate little couple they are.

MM and Marita appeared last night at 8. Ally wasn't feeling 100 per cent and struggled to come down to the bar. Joined by Dad from Menston. He looked tired and old. This year has aged him a decade. The MMs are fresh back from Yugoslavia where they shared a pension with a couple of 20 year-olds and noticed, painfully, the age gap. The years creep by.

Tonight (Thurs) Gary came in early doors for a few pints of pils lager, and was joined by a friend, a youth of similar age, to discuss their latest 'leg over' and the Leeds Utd fixtures for 1985-86. _________.
