We set off towards the setting sun into New Mexico and continued our journey to LA through the Arizona desert. We were flagged to stop for speeding by the State Police outside Phoenix, Arizona. We ignored them for some miles and finally had to stop when another Police car came from the opposite direction on the Central reservation with all lights flashing.

On Thursday 2 November, I stayed at work a little later than usual to help the sous chef clean up in the kitchen after a busy lunch. I could see there was more chaos to clear up than usual. At about 3.30 pm a woman and a man entered the kitchen and showed me their ID, saying they were RCMP - Royal Canadian Mounted Police – aka the Mounties - although they didn’t have their horses! They were from the immigration section and asked to see my ID.

In 1981, I received a phone call from Doki, a good friend and colleague from Fingal’s Bistro days. She had recently been hired as the full-time chef for Princess Anne at her home at Gatcombe Park in Gloucestershire, UK. She asked me to come down for a long weekend in late November to help her cater for the Queen, who was coming to stay for her annual visit. I said I would be delighted, and Doki put the wheels in motion for me to be vetted by Royal security.
