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.

The Fool on the Hill



It was 50 years ago today that Paul without his passport traveled to Nice, France and danced around for us all to enjoy in the Fool on the Hill video for the Magical Mystery Tour film    This is one of the highlights of the film.
