I happen to know that Hussein was very generous to Lady Glubb, the widow of Glubb Pasha. She lived in a large house in Mayfield, E. Sussex, and he spent a great deal of money on its maintenance. He would visit incognito, flying himself to a small airfield not far away, and then driving himself in a very ordinary car. This is all OR, no doubt. Seadowns (talk) 23:24, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
