we were all amused though when Catlin

himself sang a song entitled "There's all

kinds of girls at the sea-side," because in

it he said and "then comes Mary Green

from Ripon. We nearly fell off our seats.

We came out early however and they

took me as far as the Spa bridge and

I went to meet the others of your family.

Your mother informed me that she had

missed me. So of course as Mrs Boddy

is going away on Tuesday I shall not

go on any more jaunts.


I have also to tell you from your

mother that people will soon begin to

ask questions with regard to my figure

(ahem!) It's your fault. M.G. I'll shake

you well when you come home.


I forgot. Who do you think was at

the Pierrolsin the front row, painted up

to the eyes? Dot Holden!! And she

went behind at the interval. Perhaps she

is wife to a few of the pierrols. Evelyn

has just come in with the information

that that Miss Lamgstaff's (of the skating rink)

child lawful father is Jacky Holt. He

is married. I think it is a shame for men
