Transcript
Alderley Park, Chelford, Cheshire
Sunday
My darling Did you feel convinced I should write to you? I always meant to, but a spirited game of “Counties of England” {1} with the children has almost prevented me. I am going to stay with Barbara {2}, in case you wanted to communicate with me. We’ve all missed you & yr absence has been loudly deplored. Barbara & I have both been swinishly asleep on my sofa most of the afternoon, except for a short daffodil picking interlude.
Did you like the Real Charlotte {3}?
I liked you better this time than last, and am missing you quite as much as I can wish.
