Could you tell me when and where you were born please? I was born in, on November the twenty-seventh 1927 in Elizabeth Street, which is just off Eaton Square, and I am a twin and I should have been born first but my twin sister, who sadly died - wonderful person – a few months ago, pushed me aside and I came out feet first, which is not where you do want to come out, but I think the gynaecologist we had – I was born actually in the house – was the same gynaecologist the Queen had.
