Garden Corner, West Road, Cambridge. - Sorry to hear that Bob has to have 'this troublesome operation', but expects since it is being done in good time it will not be more than troublesome. Hears that the 'Welcombe Hotel' is already advertising; will go and stay a night at some point; thinks it is 'such a good thing'. When in Belgium last week to view the battlefields of Ramillies and Oudenaarde, he visited the Beaux Arts museum in Brussels and found himself 'suddenly and unexpectedly... looking at the Welcombe Memlings of the two donors'; checks whether they are by Memling [the artist is actually Jan Gossaert]. Discovered from someone making a copy that it had been bought by the 'Friends' for the gallery for 'a fabulous sum'; George told him he was glad it was there in its country of origin rather than in America; it looked 'very well'.
