Lord Halifax says "hello there!"
King George VI, in a postscript to a letter to Lord Halifax, who was Ambassador to Washington:
‘We are getting short of a certain type of paper which is made in America and is unprocurable here. A packet or two of 500 sheets at intervals would be most acceptable. You will understand this, and its name begins with B!!!’
- from The Royal Family at War, by Theo Aronson
(Later edit: by "B", the King may have been referring to "Bronco", a toilet tissue that was popular at that time.)
Luncheon at Buckingham Palace with the King and Queen - à trois, quite easy and informal. They both struck me in good form. My admiration for them grows daily.
After luncheon when I was talking to the King, he looked at the clock and said ‘By summer time 1:52. The time to the minute at which I took over four years ago.’ He told me that he thought S.B. [Stanley Baldwin] had managed all that business very well and that Winston now thought so too. He also said that he had been to see Baldwin three or four times at No. 10 those last few days without anybody ever knowing. He had gone in somebody else’s car to the garden entrance unobserved.
The King also said that on December 11th he had gone to see Baldwin in the morning in this fashion and when he had come away, said ‘I come to see you this morning but you will have to come and see me this afternoon.’

“Britain’s Envoy Visits ‘Little Flower’,” Toronto Star. March 28, 1941. Page 44. ----- Visiting New York for the first time since coming to the U.S., Lord Halifax dropped in at city hall to pay his respects to Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia. ‘We’re going to win, even if we have to fight 20 years,’ he told interviewers. Leaving city hall, Lord Halifax opened the clubrooms of the new British Merchant Navy club.
‘There is a century-old ghost story here that was sent to Lord Halifax and which he reproduced in his famous Ghost Book…’

La Donazione di Costantino il più celebre dei falsi storici
Forse l’equiparazione tra nazismo e comunismo che il parlamento europeo nella sua esplicita natura di megafono delle oligarchie, ha suscitato troppo clamore per poter essere doverosamente analizzata e non lasciare spazio alla cultura equivoca che l’ha generata. Io per primo non l’ho fatto, preso dall’ira, ma scioccamente perché raramente…
