it is nice to be important..but...it is more important to be nice !!!...Derek Jacobi to me one year at Edinburgh Festival when he held a door for me !!!
There's a room in the Cabinet War Rooms with WC on it. It was assumed that this was Winnie's private study but was in fact just the loo. Anyway, one day he's in there and his secretary knocks on the door to tell him that the Lord Privy Seal wanted to see him. Churchill's reply was, allegedly, "Tell the Lord Privy Seal I am sealed in my privy, and can only deal with one shіt at a time."
