Nicola Taylor and Marie Graham

Sunshine Snaps

It was one of those lovely days which called for a camera to record what sunshine can do for the subject.

And our glamour girls NICOLA TAYLOR and MARIE GRAHAM took turns to put each other on record and to say 'cheese'. Marie said 'pickles' once and Nicola said it didn't look as good as cheese.

"I know," said Marie, "but when I think of cheese I always think of pickles too."

Gila Golan

Is It All There?

Naturally, the first question that sprung to the mind of the man standing by the swimming pool was directly in relation to the engaging swimsuit worn by GILA GOLAN.

Is it all there?

He wasn't sure, you see, whether bits of it had fallen off.

Well, they hadn't. It was specially designed to show off Gila in an underwater scene for the film "The Animal" and Gila herself thought it entrancing.

The man standing by the swimming pool thought it sensational.

So much so that he fell in.

No one bothered to fish him out. They were all asking Gila out to lunch. In an aquarium so that she could wear her swimsuit.

How about buying one just like it for your girlfriend?

Fiona Hampshire

Cute Miss Canute

Emulating the hopeful king of ancient tradition, FIONA HAMPSHIRE has no better luck. But the beauty of this beauty is that she doesn't care half as much as good old Canute. He was considerably put out, but Fiona just finds the wet waves a matter for a shivery giggle. Fiona, a finalist in the Miss Bognor Regis contest, is a fashion model, who likes horses, ten-pin bowling and photography. What she is good at is painting and usually sells each canvas as she completes it.

Lucille Esterhazy

From Paris To London

"Ah, mon ami," said the French bird to the London taxi driver.

"Darling, I'm all yours," said the cabbie, thus giving the lie to the suggestion that his fraternity are inclined to be a bit boorish.

“I am to go to Bayswater,” she said.

“Jump in, doll,” said the cabbie.

“First,” said LUCILLE ESTERHAZY, who had come over from Paris to live in London, "here is my big bag and my small bag, also my portmanteau please to put them in the taxi for me.' The cabbie nearly did his coconut at this, but Lucille with her green eyes and her French mini took him out of his turmoil with the sweetest smile, and off they went to Bayswater with the taxi piled like a pantechnicon. And when he was unloading his cab, he ventured a chivalrous proposition.

“Like me to show you the town one night, Fifi?”

“How gallant,” said Lucille, “but I am not Fifi, I am incognito.”

“Incog who?”

“It means I remain not at home to strange men,” said Lucille.

“I'm not strange, I'm Harry,” said the enthusiastic cabbie.

‘So? Ah, we have met only to part,” said Lucille. “Au revoir, Arry.” “So long, doll,” said Harry, who knew when to remain inscrutable. Still, she did wave him goodbye.

Lucille works as a receptionist in London and is having a lovely time, thank you.

Jennifer Taylor

Please, Teacher

When you're a student you rely an awful lot on your teacher, and when JENNIFER TAYLOR was in the sixth all the boys in her class couldn't help noticing that all the male teachers were ever so dedicated to their vocation.

They all paid so much attention to Jennifer's reliance on their professional assistance.

She only had to say, "Please teacher," and one of them was there jogging her elbow and helping her phenomenally with her French verbs.

The other students said it was sheer favouritism.

“I heard you say that, Smith,” called the science master, "but what would you do in my place ?"

"I'd jog her elbow too," said Smith.

"Cheeky," said Jennifer.

This is how Jennifer looked when she was a student doing her homework. It was all like giddy St. Trinian's style then. Oh, happy days.

Gina

She’s a Witch

Girl with a wizard figure who is building quite a reputation in London’s Chelsea as a witch is dark and delectable Gina.

One thing's for sure: she has a strange power over men. They tell their wives "I'm just popping out for a spell" and rush straight to Gina. But (whisper it) she failed the QT Editor's test. He wanted her to magic up more girls with her measurements. Well, maybe she didn't wand competition!

Sandra Marsh

Measure For Measure

Whichever way round you look at it, that tape measure says that SANDRA MARSH of Bristol takes a 39 bra.

That makes Sandra's overall vitalistics tape up to 39"-24"-37" and if that isn't a perfect overall measurement for an itsy-bitsy bikini, our opinion isn't worth an empty coconut and we won't venture to give it in future. Sandra is a salesgirl, her hobby is photographic modelling, she's a pop fan and makes a fascinating companion for a mountain climb.

We can't climb a mountain without falling off, which is why Sandra would be the only fascinating thing about it.

Molly Peters

Leading Lady

She was dancing in the hay. She led with her left foot and followed with her right while the left was still up in the air. "I might have known," said MOLLY PETERS, stage and screen star, "anybody might have known. If both legs are in the air at the same time, gravitation will have its inevitable effect on you, and like me you'll end up flat on your back. By the way, I hope you like my boots. I bought them in Mayfair."

They look lovely. Don't get up. Just keep waving them about.

Who’d Prefer an Aspidistra?

Who’d Prefer an Aspidistra?

Well, which would you prefer in the bay window an aspidistra or CAROLINE CAMPBELL?

If anyone should say aspidistra it might make our question worthwhile but who'd seriously credit the answer?
