Scope and content

They were delighted with the pictures. Has intended to write every day, but so little has happened. Someone on a motorcycle ran into the car and partly demolished it, but it is fixed now. Has finished the story, but is not pleased with it. Had a two page cable from 'the Saint' yesterday. He is anxious to visit and thinks he needs a visa. Does not want to see him until he has done more work. Beaton must write and tell them every detail about the play. Is sure that it will be a success. The Vendura set have not arrived yet. The weather is wonderful and even Anna is not complaining. Asks if Beaton saw Hepburn. Wishes to know if Constance Collier is still at the Hotel Connaught.
