“Elton John and Freddie had fallen out with each other years ago, but by Live Aid they were back on good speaking terms. That summer Elton started coming to the house and he became one of Freddie’s few regular, trusted visitor until the very end.  The first time Elton came for Sunday lunch was a day to remember. As we were laying the table Joe told me I was sitting at the end of the table with Freddie on my left and Elton on my right.  ‘So don’t put salt on your food!’ he said.  ‘Why ever not?’ I asked.  ‘You’ll see, Elton will do it for you!’ he said.  Elton wore a tracksuit and baseball cap, wich stayed on his head for the entire visit. He was fairly rotund then, but on a strict diet. He didn’t have any meat, just vegetables. Nor would he drink anything but water. When we started eating I soon discovered what Joe had meant. Elton liked his seasoning and he shook the salt so vigorously over his plate that he saved me the trouble of putting it on mine.”
