What’s on

Book signing with Lady Glenconner

Meet Lady Glenconner as she joins us in the Gift Shop, signing copies of her new book, Manners and Mischief.

Bring your own copy for Lady Glenconner to sign or alternatively copies will be available to purchase along with her complete works in out Gift Shop.

Lady Anne Glenconner, Lady-in-Waiting to Princess Margaret and Maid of Honour at the Queen’s Coronation, returns with a rich, sparkling memoir told through an A to Z of her life. From affairs of the heart and Basil’s Bar to dinners with the King and the art of entertaining each chapter reveals a vivid moment of joy, mischief or resilience.

Whether offering tips on getting out of the bath with grace, or how to lose at cards with Princess Margaret, she shares wisdom and memory in equal measure. This book is a love letter to a disappearing world and a reminder that life, at any age, should be faced with laughter, a stiff upper lip, and the odd vodka tonic.
