Scope and content
Is ashamed at being the last to congratulate Beaton on his decoration. Beaton's friends generally feel that he should have received a Knighthood. If she was Clarissa and had known it was her last honours list, she would have been tempted to 'scatter them like confetti'. Ian is climbing with Noel. Has caught a chill while catching lobsters. Would like to catch up with Beaton as soon as possible.
