Lady Thatcher meets Pope Benedict XVI
By Richard Owen
A frail-looking Lady Thatcher, 83, today met Pope Benedict XVI at the end of his general audience on St Peter's Square.
The former Prime Minister, a Methodist by upbringing, was accompanied by Paul Johnson, the Catholic writer and historian, and Charles Moore, her biographer and the former editor of the Daily Telegraph, also a Catholic, who held an umbrella over Lady Thatcher's head to shield her from the sun.

She is SOME Lady! Methodists are bred to be genteel like that, I think.
The Pope's hat, vagely resembles the planet known as Saturn...
