It was fifty years ago today- July 13, 1968 Beatle John Lennon visited his Aunt Mimi at her home in Poole, Dorset and introduces her to Yoko Ono. John’s Aunt Mimi Smith- was the sister of his mother Julia. Mimi would be the person who raised John. It is said that John no matter what was going on in his life- even in the craziness of Beatlemania would call and check on Mimi every week until the end of his life. I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall when Yoko met Mimi.

LOL!!
Can you imagine? With John though nothing probably surprised her by this time.
This is probably true–I bet that was an interesting day. I bet even John Lennon was a little nervous on the way to her house.
From all I’ve read at first she wanted Cynthia back with him…She probably never warmed up to either.
I am willing to bet she started to like Cynthia a bit better when Yoko came along.
Oh yes. I think it’s in her last book that she did reach out to her…
