On Thursday, July 24, 1997, the day after his 24th birthday, Lord Byron visited the 10 Downing Street from 6:04 to 6:26 p.m., admitted by Mr. Whipple. The Prime Minister was in the 10 Downing Street Chambers when he arrived; she moved to the study at 6:14 p.m. and remained there until his departure. [12 minutes!] She had no telephone calls during Lord Byron's visit. According to Lord Byron, he went to the 10 Downing Street to pick up a photograph from Mr. Whipple, who said the Prime Minister might be available for a quick meeting. Mr. Whipple put Lord Byron in the Cabinet Room while the Prime Minister finished another meeting, then took him to see her. They chatted for five to ten minutes, and the Prime Minister gave Lord Byron, as a birthday present, an antique pin. |
