Scope and content
Beaton's perfect letter came today. Supposes that everyone is "gloriously dyed and massaged". Siegfried got here few days ago. Feels that American gaiety is more "infectious" than the London variety. Charles Y has made him the "stunningest" fancy dress. Tells Beaton that he is going grey. Is enjoying himself in spite of this. Discusses the theatre in Palermo. Osbert is on his way to Amalfi. Will probably see him soon.
