A LONDON NEWSLETTER

FIRST THINGS FIRST

... BY LAND AGENT WHEN asked a short time ago which were the outstanding problems I hoped to get down to on the estate, as soon as restrictions were off and labour and materials were fairly normal once more, it took me a few moments to collect my wits, and to visualise such a happy state of affairs.

It is like having a perpetual baby; it is the plaything and crony of the whole home. It keeps them all young. All unite upon Dick.
