It was very nice having Debo here. She & Diana (my goodness they have become eccentric) rushed about Paris in huge long coats & their heads tied up in white satin like two beauties distracted by tooth-ache. Woolworth bags bulging open & a hundred parcels dangling from their arms. The staring that went on, you can imagine! Debo bought, I thought, a lot of expensive rubbish, rather on the line of the clothes Diana buys at Harrods—rather less nice in fact. Of course Paris isn’t arranged for that sort of wild two-day shopping spree—it takes an age to buy properly here. However a good time was had by all, including me!
