Future Events
Do you have what it takes to be a successful spy?
22nd April 2024
David Bradley interviews ex-Financial Times security, intelligence and defence correspondent Jimmy Burns, OBE, about what it takes to be a spy - and whether or not Revellers have the required rare combination of characteristics.
Jimmy will draw comparisons with would be Reveller Walter Bell, about whom he has completed a groundbreaking book, a Faithful Spy.

Heaven and Hell
Party
8th May 2024
An evening of cocktails, gossip and dancing downstairs in Hell. Upstairs is pure Heaven. Champagne, chablis and exquisite conversations about the good things in life.
Unlike the Afterlife, you can flit between the two via the stairs (purgatory). At London's top Swedish cocktail (and rave) bar.

Survivors
3rd June 2024
Lady Meyer's husband, the late Sir
Christopher Meyer (British Ambassador to the US) encapsulated the story of Catherine's aristocratic Russian grandparents in the enthralling, page-turning book Survivors. The Bolsheviks chased them and their two daughters across Siberia. Finally, in 1920, they reached Manchuria, only to be met by civil war and a pending Japanese invasion.
Sadly, Christopher died before finally finishing it.
Catherine completed, edited, and published it. David Bradley will interview Catherine about what actually happened to her grandparents, why she wrote it, and what society would look like if tyranny prevailed here.
Further Amusements
We're planning a talk about an aristocratic family surviving the Russian Revolution and escaping to China.
A trip to Peralta, Italy, is in the making.
Expect talks by authors on topical issues of the day.
Stay posted.
