The trip to Portugal was to Hunter Daviesâ home in December 1968. Linda got pregnant with Mary then.
Unsuccessful so far finding pic taken of them there.
There's a photo of Paul & Linda on this holiday at the bottom of this article. Incidentally the Paul & Jane photo at Heathrow airport was taken on 29th May 1967.

Thanks for sharing that, Kestrel! Interesting article.  If I were Margaret though, I think I would have accepted the tea from his mother anyway, just so things would start off on the right foot!Â
To each her own of course. It's a great offense to reject tea though. Look what happened to us Americans when we refused to have some in 1776!Â
This is another link to an article about Hunter Davies, where he talks about his family spending time with Paul, Linda and Heather in Portugal in late 1968. I think the photo below is what Nancy might have been looking for, to post earlier. (If the link doesn't work somehow you can go to the top of page 18 of this thread to find it, Oobu posted the link in July 2017.)

Love that he's carrying her bag (wonder if it's her camera equipment bag) that has her initials LÂ LÂ E.
You can see this bag in another photo, taken on the day of the iconic Abbey Road crossing photo. The bag is on the steps where all the Beatles are seated having a smoke.

Thanks for the info!I love this part!
âIn 1968, I wrote the first and only authorised biography of The Beatles. When Paul McCartney came to have a holiday with Margaret and me in Portugal earlier that year, my first name happened to come out â and he started laughing and mocking. I pointed out that his real first name was James, not Paul, so he should mind himself.â

Leslie, the pic you posted of the whole gang is the one I was thinking of - thanks!
Hunter was a bit off on Heatherâs age - she was nearly 6, not 8 in mid-Dec, 1968.

So gorgeous!Â
 Thanks, Oobu!
I'm afraid to look at too many of these, though... don't want to faint and hit my head on the table or something, lol

I think he would look even better if all of his hair was silver like his brother.
Hereâs an oldie I donât think I posted yet:

April, 1969 with family in Liverpool. Note how much one of his cousinâs sons (bottom right) looks like him!
