Content and context

This is her first Easter spent in London for ten years. Tells Beaton about her trip to Swan Lake. It rained a lot but this weekend promises to be "sunny and spring-like". Went to Ashcombe for lunch on Monday and had a "most agreeable" day. The garden was looking lovely and the house has never looked nicer. Things have settled down happily again. Came this morning to see if there were any letters or cables from Beaton. Drank his health on Monday and wished him a happy birthday. Is feeling "rather fidgety" until his cable arrives. His letters from Japan of March 25th arrived on Tuesday April 11th. Has sent them off to the people concerned and is putting a call in to Ashcombe. Asks him to cable her when he expects to leave for Delhi. Has received some money for Beaton's Near East work. Is in a rush to catch the post bag; sends love and blessings from them all.
