Scope and content
They will certainly go to Kuala Lumpur. Wishes Beaton had been here for the Bolshoi visit. Isaiah was about to fly off to Israel when Ara announced she was going too. While driving her back from Oxford to London she gave Ara a piece of her mind and then "there was instantly a noise of a rifle shot and the windscreen cracked from side to side and shattered into a thousand pieces". Asks Beaton not to let on that he heard this from her. The "August doldrums" are on at the moment. Asks Beaton when he will be back.
