Scope and content
Enjoyed Beaton's visit and his account of his glamorous afternoon. Read Beaton's letter and thought his comparison of the Queen and Diana Abdy was good. Is certain that the Queen enjoyed it all. Is half dreading, half longing to set off for Southampton. Has done nothing about a thermos despite Beaton's advice.
