MT: No.10 menu ("Luncheon in honour of the Honourable Ronald Reagan Governor of California, and Mrs Reagan") [first meeting of MT and Reagan] [released 2003]

Editorial comments:

Survival of the menu in MT's papers strongly suggests MT was present. PREM15/1267 contains more information about the lunch, but there is no definitive guest list unfortunately. A long list of possible guests includes W.H. Auden and David Hockney.

Governor and Mrs Reagan signed the No.10 visitor book on arriving.

Importance ranking: Major
