Scope and content
It was a joy to get Beaton's graphic letter. Is impressed by him saying he will manage to get another book out of his notes. The two articles were great fun to do. Is lying in the garden between a burning sun and a violent north wind. Describes the event a few nights ago when planes kept flying off to battle all night and she watched them out of the window. Discusses the doings of their friends. Weeds now completely hide her house.
