1 item

10 Pelham Place, S.W.7. - Kind of Bob to have remembered them with his collection of poems ["From the Shiffolds"]; particularly liked the one about a rock pool. Margaret sends love to both Trevelyans; she also much enjoyed the poems. Is at Malvern 'making films on how to destroy the universe in the shortest time by turning knobs'; this is 'an amiable and useful employment', but it is 'annoying' to be a hundred miles from Margaret in London, especially as Isabel is currently spending her holidays there. Ralph is in the army at Karachi, and is married; Daniel is also married, and back at King' [College, Cambridge]. He himself travels between Malvern and London every weekend. Has not seen John Luce since he returned, but saw Gordon and Tee Tee recently at Gloucester, who 'seem very vague as to when they will get back to Burma'. Likes to 'reciprocate in kind' for poetry, and has 'composed one for the occasion called "The Mad Physicist", which he copies out.
