INTRODUCTION

HEREIN THE FORTUNATEREADERS WILL FINDTHE HAPPY CONJUNCTIONof two very brilliant young people, whose literaryand artistic talents fit like the proverbial glove, orthe musical and lyrical alliance of those immortals,Gilbert and Sullivan.

Never were epigrams more worthily illustrated,or more worthy of illustration. The joie de vivre,the humour and the human observation which runthrough this little volume, will I am sure make agreat appeal to the public possessing or admiringthose qualities.

I am proud to think that I was responsible forthe journalistic débuts of both authors, whose workenriched the pages of The Tatler for some years, andthat I have been honoured in being asked to writean introduction to their first collective effort.

Editor of The Tatler
