MP RS HYACINTH BUCKET is a formidable pillar of society in the Avenue where she lives. She fulfils her social obligations with a style all her own and a relentless tenacity which is incomprehensible, not only to her dear husband Richard, but also to all those whose grip on the social ladder of success is more fragile than her own.
Hyacinth Bucket's Hectic Social Calendar reveals for the first time exactly how Hyacinth's hectic life is organized, how her renowned candle light suppers are an inspiration to social hostesses everywhere and how mingling with the top strata of society has become an everyday part of her existence. We discover for the first time just how valuable Hyacinth's antiques are, where in Italy she plans to holiday and exactly which minor royals have been shown photographs of her multi-talented son and heir, Sheridan.
Come with Hyacinth (and dear Richard) to Royal Ascot and Cowes Week, to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and the Chelsea Flower Show. Join her at her stylish Regimental Dinner and her Chinese New Year supper. Hear occasionally from Sheridan and his international world of finance, marvel at the antics of Daddy, the war hero, and wonder with Hyacinth exactly when Onslow's vest is next due for a wash.
Hyacinth Bucket's Hectic Social Calendar is a personal insight into the daily life of a much- loved eccentric and a veritable inspiration to hostesses everywhere.
