CHAP Summer/Autumn 24

Description

After a brief hiatus, The Chap Magazine is back for the autumn with a spring in its step, vim in its tank and a splendid buttonhole in its lapel. Mr. Joe Jackson heads the cast of a motley crew of Maltese dandies, Grand Flaneurs, Greek goddesses and hellraising drummers. Heroes encountered within include Patrick Leigh Fermor, with a visit to his house in the Southern Peloponnese; Citoyenport – Valetta’s answer to Zack Pinsent, Victorian author RS Surtees; Goldeneye – the house on Jamaica where Ian Fleming wrote all the James Bond novels; The Crown and Cushion, the Oxfordshire hotel where Keith Moon entertained Vivian Stanshall and Ronnie Lane; Screen cads from George Sanders to Peter Wyngarde; the much-filmed Greek island of Spetses, where everything from The Magus to Glass Onion were filmed; International Etiquette; Rowing Blazers; Behind the scenes at the Monaco Grand Prix racetrack; Greek Brandy Metaxa; Desert Boots and the Oscar Wilde Wit Competition.
