I visited Aub McLaren a couple of days ago and to my surprise found room 122 empty. Subsequent enquiry revealed that he had transferred to a brand new super deluxe totally secure suite, consisting of a more spacious bedroom and a largish all purpose room, I found Aub sitting there looking for all the world like Lord Stradbroke at the Windsor Hotel. My upper right central incisor fell out into my soup at dinner on Monday night but I’ve since had it replaced. We can celebrate the arrival of Angus James Mullins last Wednesday—son of Andrew and first grandson of Michael and Suzanne. He wasn’t too well at first—had a yellow hue—but is now fighting fit.
