Scope and content
Was charmed with Beaton's lovely card. His garden must be wonderful in the spring. Laughed at his thumbnail sketch. Enid is still moaning about wanting to go back to London, but is enjoying doing bits of painting and varnishing. Heard on the radio that a post office strike on Friday is very likely, so will spend the day relaxing with a pile of books about the late 17th century "into which I've been plunged by Pepys' diaries". Discusses the period and the books she has been reading. Is looking forward to seeing Vogue. Had a nostalgic time watching TV the other night.
