Dearest Colette

I am sorry you are having such domestic upsets.3 When I come, I will see if I can help you out.

I propose to arrive at 6:40 on Friday March 11, but it is just possible I may not come till same time next day. Expect me March 11 unless you hear to the contrary. I can have lunch and dinner at the Pengwern.4 Love.
