17th March, 1932.
My own darling
No letter from you this morning! My cold is a little better. It is only a cold and nothing more.
I had a busy day in the office yesterday. Walter Runciman dined with us last night and was extraordinarily interesting.
Jock MacEwan is very anxious for you and me to go to Marchmont at Whitsuntide. You might think this over. It would be a good rest for you. He says he is having an amusing party. Whit-Sunday is the 15th May.
Maclean thinks you ought to come to the Goethe luncheon at the House of Commons next Tuesday. I have to make the speech
You must please yourself about that. Simon has agreed to speak at the Fishmongers' Hall party in the evening.
Lloyd George made an extraordinary speech yesterday to a Liberal gathering, in which he insulted everybody comprehensively, but was kindest to the young Tory members. He up-ed and asked me to dine with him in the evening. I wonder what on earth he is going to play at.
I have got an early copy of Caesar, which looks very handsome.
I suppose you ought to ge t the old man back today from his travels. It looks as if the Boat Race on Saturday would be a complete fiasco. I am greatly looking forward to seeing you at luncheon tomorrow.
Much love. your John
