Good hair day for McCartney’s lawyer
It was billed as the divorce battle of the decade – a multimillionaire Beatle separating from his money-grabbing wife. But when Heather Mills discovered that she had not obtained the divorce settlement she had hoped for (a “mere” £24.3m), she decided to take her revenge – on Paul McCartney’s barrister, Fiona Shackleton. Observers witnessed Mills pouring a bottle of High Court water over the unfortunate lawyer. The former glamour model later said she had “baptised” Shackleton. As it happened, McCartney’s legal team still had the last laugh. Shackleton had gone into the final day’s proceedings looking a little bouffant and emerged, thanks to Mucca, immeasurably sexier.
THE ENTERTAIMENT YEAR IN QUOTES (Ringo Starr) (BBC) :

RINGO STARR:
Please do not send fan mail to any address you have. Nothing will be signed after the 20th of October. If that is the date on the envelope, it’s gonna be tossed. I’m warning you with peace and love I have too much to do. Former Beatle Ringo Starr gives a short, sharp message to fans that he will no longer sign autographs.
