The occasion was John’s 39th birthday and Sean’s fourth. Also present was Yoko Ono, and friends of Sean and their parents.

Lennon and Ono gave each of the young guests a present, and arranged entertainment by a magician and a clown. The Tavern On The Green was a favourite destination for Lennon during the late 1970s.
