(Contrary to popular belief, this girl is NOT Maureen Cox)
Girl Trades Beatle Kiss for Medal
A teen-aged Manhattan girl who inadvertently stole Ringo Starr’s religious medal returned it yesterday and her reward was paid off in kisses. “I’ve had it a long time,” Starr said as he retrieved his St. Christopher medal from Angie McGowan, 16. The medal is a Catholic religious symbol denoting protection form danger while traveling.”My auntie gave it to me, ” Starr explained. “It’s very small, but it means a lot to me.” Angie said she was trying to steal a kiss from Ringo in an early morning crush, was jolted back by the crowd and came away with the medal. When Starr proffered a kiss of gratitude on Angie’s cheek, photographers prevailed upon him to repeat it a score of times. Angie acquiesced gracefully. The Beatle Paul McCartney happened into the room and added his own kiss on Angie’s cheek.”It was just wonderful,” sighed the blissful teenager. “Gee, I wish I could have met the other two.” [x]

13 Emperor's Gate, 
Brompton, Knightsbridge, London
November 1963 - July 1964

John and Cynthia lived in the 4th floor flat for around 9 months before buying Kenwood. They lived there under the name "Hadley", hoping that it would get some fans off their backs (the mesure was unsuccessful as the fans soon found out Hadley was in fact Lennon). Robert Freeman, The Beatles' most favoured photographer from 1963 to 1966, and his wife helped John and Cyn get the apartment and lived right below them on the 3rd floor. Fans gathered around the front entrance, day or night. 

“We have a flat [in Earls Court] but you should see the outside of the house. It’s been scrawled on by people with messages that can’t be removed. They’re engraved. I know you expect people to find out where we’re living, but it’s a strange thing to want to do, unless they are really young kids. It’s rather hard.” - Cynthia Lennon (1964)
