Also; A postcard to Piers du Pré from Jacqueline (J), "This is a huge bloody bridge called the coat hanger because that is what it really is." "I left a brassiere in my hotel in Melbourne and had to phone them to ask them to send it on. All very embarrasing." "The Aussies have no idea about how to land an aircraft…" "...; first they do a right about turn with one wing completely down and one right up (they almost turn on the spot)…" "...and then they come in so fast that the nose goes up & you bump on the tarmac so many times you feel lousy."
