Scope and content
Discusses Beaton's letter. Is still by the sea. Is coming to see Beaton on 10th November. Has complications with his book and cannot come before then. Does not care whether he does the "My Fair Lady" piece. Would just like to spend some time with Beaton. Is in a state of tension. Perry and Dick have an appeal for a new trial pending in Federal court. Does not think they will get the trial. If they do, he will have 'a complete breakdown of some sort'. Spent a weekend at the Paleys where he saw 'C.2', who is 'so pregnant that she really is grotesque and ought not to be allowed in public'.
