Joining the the Nice tea set


 Joining the Nice Tea Set

Daily Express

November 2, 1967


One of the nicest times to have a cup of tea -- even nicer in the morning -- is at the end of a crisis. 

And for Beatle Paul McCartney sharing a cuppa with a girl friend in Nice, the last 48 hours on the French Riviera had just been that. 

Apart from forgetting his passport- which had to be air freighted to him at Nice -- he forgot his money. And this led to a score of problems. These were eventually solved by frantic phone calls between Nice and London. 

Paul's mission on the Riviera was to let a photographer take location shots for a Beatles TV film. 

His teatime companion: Tunisian-born Pom Zehrfuss, 19-year-old student daughter of a French architect on holiday with her family in Nice.
