Transcript
  • Nov 16 Tuesday In bed nearly all morning with a headache. Alan & Karl did unpacking. All afternoon Laura & I struggled with Gwendolen Murphy – contributions to her anthology. In the evening packing up Gayford's things we didn't want. In evening Alix Harry Laura & I went in the car to Maisie's & Maritza Frishauer's party – L & I wearing evening dress. Among those present were Amabel & Clough Williams Ellis, Ralph Pinker, C. Joad, Otterway & his pal (the schoolmaster from Hampstead) Mrs. Strachey, the whole Freeman family, Kitty West, Ward & Dorothy, Honor & Gordon, Alan, S.H.Wood, Hilda Matheson: the biggest joke was one Lady Constance Bonham-Carter who talked art. A dirty feel afterwards.
