Scope and content
The paper is supposed to "save on postage and hot air" but he can "never make out how it folds". The McCalls are sending Beaton some cookbooks for Roy. They are very interested in Beaton's memoirs. The Observer has purchased serialisation rights for O'Higgins' book. Is enjoying his new found freedom. Still feels like "a pregnant woman twelve months gone". When the book appears Beaton will get the first copy. Will be in London in October for the launch.
