'And your interview with the new PM before you opened the meeting here?' Monica enquired.
'He apologized handsomely and without reservation to
me. You remember Howard was told the PM was experimenting with a twin-track policy? Testing us, so to speak? He left it to the MOD to choose someone from Military

'They got on well enough in Arcachon. I saw it myself.'

'You're imagining it...'
