My darling wife,
Just as I thought the postman would not be in time he came, so off I went to Town with your letter snug in my pocket.
When I read your account of the early morning I reminded myself that holidays are only work disguised so as to look different from work!
Needless to say your suggestion of the week-end agitates me. I would love to come especially if I could get off on Friday night. It would help to cut short this intolerable pause I suppose; I never knew time drag so horribly. It would be awful if it made the remaining time seem to go even more slowly – if such a thing is possible.
I have been to a business meeting of the Institute. The first 3/4 hour was spent in talks by various people in memory of Rickman. Rather stiff and too formal for the most part but Money-Kyrle spoke well – he who wrote the obituary in The Times.
