Scope and content
It was dear of Beaton to write and to want him to come to his party. Feels ill and wretched. Beaton cannot imagine how lonely it is without his mother and his Nannie. Does not feel able to have fun like he used to or to tire himself out. Would like to meet in the spring. Hopes Beaton can help him with his lovely taste in "knocking the house to bits". Asks when he sails.
