My dear Hattie
Thanks for your letter June 11th, I wrote to Clarita & Nena this month so you know I am still alive & trying to keep my head above water What a life it is always trying to cut down; as a family we find it very hard. Corina said she was tired in seeing me in my shabby winter coat & insisted bringing me out one, I told her not xxx to beging it wont fit as the serving girls don’t seem to know how to fit one I am enclosing a letter from Corina incase you haven’t had one. Thank goodness she will be back – about the 14th I was very glad to see Jay & May also John witch I hadn’t seen for a very long time a very good looking chap very like Cito Do you remember how we sat on a fence waiting for him to come in from camp. Of course you were always first! A Christine Keeler. Why didn’t we meet Profumo’s in our days? Malcolm & Gerty came in to get the boys I went to Audreys for dinner to meet them George has come out from the States for his holidays. Al must be very upset at Bezilito dieng I wonder what she will do It is sad. Just as they had built the lovely home.
I had a letter from Clarita & she said she has taken a house near Marion’s. I must say I would rather have something nearer the Cumbre. That old car wont last much longer I hope she got good prices for her things. I am still trying to sell crystal. Ordinary glass is very expensive & I am not asking very much. I must close as it is lunch time always ready for it as I go with out dinner & most times without tea
Give Al my love (do you trust Pedicurists.)
Have you seen Nora & Buzzey.
Much love Katie

My dear Marion,
I ment to write on your arrival but as I had xxx written to all the others I thought I would write after seeing Corina.
They arrived yesterday afternoon both looking very well. & seemed to have enjoyed every minute & full of Stuart’s baby. Saw Bernice & said she was looking very well. Eileen is not coming out this year. I have just heard that Inez King had to fly to England as Enid is in trouble with her married life & is getting a divorce Poor Inez the second one in the family I have just received a very nice letter from Camucha telling me of her trip & a thanks from all of them for the present. I must say the little boy in the photo puzzled me & thought they must have had another Your grandchildren are nice looking. The weather has been simply awful no sun rain & fog. I haven’t been to town for ages I’ll have to go tomorrow as the diamon came out of my ring & gave up every thought of ever finding it again. I was setting down on the W.C. when I saw it on the floor wasn’t that luckey!! I felt I aught to buy a lottery ticket. as my head is just above water that makes me think of poor Christine Keeler when she fell into the water & was found bobing up & down under a peer!! I am afraid I will never have such luck. I have been playing a lot of bridge I suppose you will start your lessons. again. I wish you would tell me what Billy is going to do if it is true that the place is sold. I hear Americans are out looking for land I think they are going to get it in the neck over the Oil that is if Illia gets in. I was very worried when I heard about the sinking of the boat from Montevideo as I thought May & Jay might be on it, but they came over the night before
Well its time for siesta. Love to all
From
Katie
