On land ing at Boulogne he drove straight to the British embassy in the Rue rip spa in Brussels. Outside tre embassy some Twenty policemen in Stead of the usual two were on duty As he drove through the High double Black doors of the Cuba by and stepped out m the cow Yard. He was Wear ing dark glasses and unsmiling outside the Gates was a crowd of and typists leaned from windows to a Alch a glimpse him although acted with a a shaking connect etude throughout his stay in Brus Sels his being twerp presented the embassy with some very special problems.

In this respect he was probably a disappointment to is ambassador sir Christo Pher Bachelor once told me that he thought Peter would a a great help to him in enter Taining after his experience of court life perhaps in Brussels Tow thend was Only interested in self effacement tie might have buried him self in hard work but his Post it has Row been abolished almost a sinecure it was a Job which could have Ixam done by a Man with a Quarter of Townsend s Talent. I feel sure that is tha of exile went by town Sond s fuel must have dragged Mora each morning As he made the ascent to this office. A few Days after arriving in Brussels he went to Hia first social a dance Given by the ambassador. Peter stayed until after Midnight but ignored a dozen of Belgium s most Beautiful debutantes. He aids no Morl of he evening Smo King and chatting. Already a having his name linked with and other woman anal Many attempts wore made to do so. When Townsend left London the pile was to be for Only one year. But it quickly be came apparent to the Queen the Queen Mother and the other members of the Loyal family thai the Princess was really Cieler mined to marry Towi Send Margaret then agreed Wilh her sister that he should remain in Brussels until she was Twenty five. It therefore became even More necessary for Townsend to occupy himself fully. First he do Cir Dlo master French he studied it assiduously for More than a ear.

He took his racing As seriously As he has taken eve Ery tiling else in life. Early in 1955, Princess mar Garet went on a tour of the Caribbean no doubt Many around the Palace hoped that the trip would get the girl s mind Oft the business mar Garet enjoyed the Holiday Ful filled her duties impeccably but was never in danger of for getting Peter. No doubt Townsend while Margaret was away on her Loyal Tours of the Caribbean was a trifle apprehensive. He knew the pressures to which she Way being subjected. Could she withstand them but his fears evidently prov pm i him dlr the moment the Princess was Back in Clarence House she picked up her Green one Telephone and Cal led Townsend in Brussels. The Romance still bloomed she still intended to marry him. Continued copyright by Peter Davies old creditors knocking at your door calf bbia6ara it s what we n my Dayton bar. 21fl Curry Ali.
