Beaton must get this soon as last week she could not write having got up every morning to "violent exercises & long walks". Got Beaton's letters. Remembers "how easily your energy could abandon you for no reason & how nervous you were at times". Is happy to know he again feels his own self. Asks Beaton not to let people read her letters. Prince Nicholas had to have a new uniform. By Monday 13th the Prince will have left for Paris. Discusses friends' plans and her own. Baba has an abcess in her jaw. She and Johnnie have taken a house with "several entrances" and a "huge garden". They do not realise what an expense it will be. She will visit it tomorrow. Is going by train, but may try the ferry as the fogs are continuing to be black and thick. Has ordered some more clothes. Has seen Bebe and Boris's flat. Will write to Beaton from London.
