"I would think she knows her onions (sexwise) and has Keelered a bit in her time...", Daphne du Maurier: (1907 - 1989) British Author, T.L.S. Mena, 15th July 1963, 'Bing', two pages, to Maureen Baker-Munton, ('Dearest Maureen') an extremely entertaining appraisal of her son Christian Browning's new partner Olive White. 'The big news, and I was waiting to report, was the visit this week-end (they left this morning) of that Rabbo and his Olive! You can imagine I was on tenterhooks, but so determined not to be like Mrs Tower when she first received Flave at her house ("Now we must have a little talk..") that I went all out to make things easy and jam-along, though filled the house with welcoming flowers as if it was the Queen once more! Moper also bobbing, and rather nervous, and changed into his black velvet dinner jacket I s'pose to make an impact! Anyway, they arrived late for dins Friday night - the duck had to be held up - and you know how one goes by first impressions. Well, as she got out of the jag, smart, in a pink tweed suit, and of course very attractive, very tall, with that make up that all these girls do these days, and very black lashes and bleached hair, and we chatted and sort of whisked in with suit-cases, I thought to myself "Now wait a minute, if it were not for the bleached hair, what is it about her that is familiar? Guess who? Vallie!! You remember when Vallie first came over, and was an Air Hostess, and was very striking to look at, and came to stay, and was not a bit shy, (you were not here) and I was a bit taken aback because she called Moper "Boy" which you had never done - but was very easy and jam-along, well - awfully that type. Put her in an Air Hostess's uniform and she would be saying, with a bright smile, "fasten your Seat Belts, please". I must say, she was awfully nice. Not mincey, or brash, or in any way waine, neither talked too much or too little, seemed perfectly at home though not over so, called me Bing (did'nt call Moper anything) got taken to see the boat, and in fact it went with a Swing! Moper like a dog with two pricks, very attentive, took her to Mass on Sunday (Rabbo abed!)... then while Kits and I did some work on a script, he and Olive washed all the glass and put it in boxes, in the pantry!! So I now see it all, Moper as an old man of 80, lives in some back part of Kits's (by that time) mansion in Suffolk, with Olive waiting on him hand and foot - I by then, in me grave! No, truly, she really was a success, and what beats me is why she should be so obviously in love with Rabbo. I mean, I would have thought she would have gone hell for leather for "the older man" - a sort of 40ish types. You may say, eye to the main chance, and she knows she's on to a good thing, but even so, she could find a rich "good thing" of 40 odd. Kits' very jam along with her... While she, one felt could have eat him up. Snuggled up to him when watching telly, etc. I would think she knows her onions (sexwise) and has Keelered a bit in her time, but despite this does not appear showy off or spoilt in anyway... I bet she has an Irish temper, and would fling things about if she lost it with him'.'Moper' was Daphne's pet name for her husband Sir Frederick Browning. Christian Browning would later marry the Irish beauty queen Olive White in 1964.(All rights are reserved by The Chichester Partnership and no written materials may be reproduced in part or in full without the express prior written permission of The Chichester Partnership c/o Curtis Brown Group Ltd)
Lot 73
"I was expecting a bench behind a pillar...", Daphne du Maurier: (1907 - 1989) British Author, T.L.S. Kilmarth Par Cornwall, 21st November 1972, 'Bing', two pages, to Maureen Baker-Munton, ('Dearest Maureen') a good long letter wishing Maureen a happy birthday with accompanying signed card and detailing an invitation to Westminster Abbey. 'I couldn't help it, but this birthday card of the two penguins so caught my eye, I had to get it for you. Friends of Teddy's! Many happy returns of the 23rd, and I hope I've got the date right this year. Rather a shilling anti-climax, but I am sending you under a seperate post a Rule Britannia, to add to your (crumb) collection of D.du M's. I also hope you have a happy weekend, the poor Martyr not prostrating himself too much, and the Kristen, if home for half-term, doing his stuff in the garden but not making Mum break her back also'. Daphne continues; 'well, my news of any import i that I had an invite for the Westminster Abbey do yesterday. My heart sank, and then I remembered how Moper would say "Good God, duck, of course you must go." So literally for his sake I caught the train Sunday (very slow, men working on the line!) spent Sunday night with Tess and Co... Them a hired car to the Abbey (me in cast-off brown frock of Tess's, and me Derry & Tom fur coat, plus fur hat, Moper's brooch at neck, so looked O.K.) and off to Westminster. To my amazement I was shown a front seat on the nave - I was expecting a bench behind a pillar - and thanked God I had on shoes and not travelling booties! Opposite was old Edward Ford, and I think Dick Colville, and Hanriette, so obviously it was front seats in naves for ex members of Household, and I was deeply touched to think I represented Moper. On either side of me two buffers I didn't know, but I bet Moper would have said "Dont be silly, duck, its old Tootie Westmorcombe and Giles Fiddlearse", but honestly, I am no good at remembering faces... Well I expect you saw the whole thing on telly, so I need'nt describe it. She looked terrific, and the whole procession the same. I was so glad I went. And the thing that "sends" me is that fan-fare of trumpets'. 'Moper' was Daphne's pet name for her late husband Sir Frederick Browning.
