Had tea etc. in a nearby joint, were soaked as per usual and then took the train back to Waterloo Stn. thoroughly satisfied with the way in which we had spent the morning.
Took the Tube at Waterloo, crossed under the Thames, and out at Trafalgar Square, our objective point being the National Art Gallery, just across the street from Nelson's Monument. As you may surmise it contains many famous paihtings, such well known artists as Titian, Reynolds, Turner, Landseer, Gainsbdrought. Van Lyke etc. being well represented.
After supper we decided to take in a show, so after being turned down at several theatres (no seats) decided to see Raymond Hitchcock in "Mr. Manhattan", Rather good show, have seen him several times though, so know his peculiar brand of humor. Walked back to Waterloo and turned in.
At lest I have reached the.finishing point of my wonderful tale, and judging from the length of it,perhaps it is just as well I didn't write about everyday. Didn't finish the job last night so am writing in my tent this evening. The kid is busy too, so I guess he'll be able to hold his end up.
Pound three or four letters awaiting me on our return among them being the one you wrote after receiving our first letters.
Was glad to hear that they arrived all right, and that they were perfectly satisfactory. Have been writing every other week, so.
I guess you have had three or four more since then.
Regarding the Mcs. was surprised to hear that they haven't written, but as far s.s I am concerned I won't remind them of it as it is entirely up to them. Don't think for a moment though that they have forgotten you, as we often talk over the good times we had at home. Expect they think that we two cover all there is to say, and I guess they are about right.
Didn't see Douglas in London after all. Lived at his hotel but couldn't catch him, so your remark re our seeing him quite often is far from the mark. The station where he is stationed is about 100 miles from here, so you can see it is a difficult matter to see him. Hope he will take trip down here though, for I'll be as glad to see him as he doubtless will be to see us.
Re sooks, I think medium weight would be just the thing for the summer time. Have five or six pair yet, but the kid is pretty low. As for the bags, they are to hold shaving tackle etc.
Received a fine box from Annie' s friend last week, and needless to say enjoyed it very much. Am going to write Annie to- morrow* If you send a box be sure to pack everything securely $$ cakes are easily broken. A good method is to use a carton like a
