HRH Princess Margaret and her "courtiers" on the island of Mustique.
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."

The Sister
“Disobedience is my joy!”
“When my sister and I were growing up, she was made out to be the goody-goody one. That was boring, so the press tried to make out that I was as wicked as hell.”
“The Queen is the only person who can put on a tiara with one hand, while walking down stairs.”
[When a party hostess asked after "the Queen"]: "Which one? My sister, my mother or my husband?"
“I’m no angel, but I’m no Bo-Peep either.”
“My children are not royal; they just happen to have the Queen for their aunt.”
Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon (21st August 1930 – 9th February 2002)
