Fine Long Autograph Letter to ‘Dearest Nana’,
Miss Helen Lightbody (d. 1987, nanny to Prince Charles and Princess Anne, 1948-1956), written on his last day at Gordonstoun, “... it seems so strange after almost 6 years & yet I shall be pleased to leave in many ways as I think one outgrows school at 18. Papa has just left for Canada having arrived last night for our last service and having said goodbye to some staff. Mummy comes this afternoon to open a new gymnasium & there are going to be hundreds of people here milling about... I am spending the weekend at Innes House”, near Elgin, with Captain Iain Tennant, chairman of the governors, “with Mummy before flying down... It will be wonderful to get home & see Mabel”, (Mabel Anderson, nanny to all four children) “and the two small horrors. Andrew” (born 1960) “appears to going through a very difficult phase... & practicaly reduces me to tears as well!”, he talks of the holidays, “polo... sailing at Cowes... Balmoral & I don’t have to leave until the 7th October when Cambridge goes back... poor Anne will have to go back in September & it will be sad... I do hope I see you before... Cambridge... I expect it will be easier for me to get to London more often than when I was up here. I must... finish my last minute packing... I’ve still got my little brown case I used to put my toys and odds and ends in... very useful”, with a newspaper obituary of Miss Lightbody, 4 sides 4to., Gordonstoun, Elgin, Moray, 22nd July
