In what was surely one of the fetes of the year, Tatler Magazine celebrated its 300th birthday this month. No expense was spared to amuse the A-list guest list, which even included royalty. This included a human sized cake, which I should hope was a decoration.
Tatler Magazine was started in 1709 as a pamphlet that revealed gossip, which was distributed three times a week. The 300th birthday party happened in the Stable Yard of St. James’s Palace, in Lancaster House.
