Scope and content
Has read Beaton's book about the war. Thought it was 'jolly good'. Elspeth also thought so. Always buys Beaton's books. Mentions Beaton's management of his affairs. Is planning to leave home in a year or two to build a new home 8 miles south. Would like to spend £80,000. Can move into the broiler-house range for less than half that. Does not even want a swimming pool or proper garage. Tells Beaton not to answer.
