In the early 1980's I was having lunch at an adjacent table to Harold and Mary Wilson, the occasion of which was described very amusingly by a now retired Lord Justice of Appeal -- but at the time by one of the Queens Counsel in this cause celebre, in a book review he wrote in 1999, and which began ...
"When, some years ago, the Bar’s dining room at the House of Lords was closed and barristers appearing before the Law Lords were given permission to use the Peers’ dining room, younger barristers became quite badly disoriented by seeing elder statesmen who they were confident had been dead for many years lunching at the next table. What they didn’t always appreciate was that it was thanks to a similar cryogenic process that the Law Lords themselves were hearing appeals – as they still are."
