[November 1939]

My Dear

It was very sweet of you to write – & it recalled our lovely time together.
I hope what you say of P.P.1 has some truth in it (Do you approve of the comedy scene (By-ends)?)
I fear Saturday is no good as I have been summoned to a F.U.2 meeting at Guildford. Also Honorine’s3 Boy Friend is coming for the day! Do get Kenneth to take you on a nice drive.
Love from

RVW

2.  Federal Union, of which VW was a strong supporter.
