From Juliet to Sidney

28th January, 1946

Dear Sidney,

Yes, dinner with pleasure. I’ll wear my new dress and eat like a pig.

I am so glad I didn’t embarrass S&S about Gilly and the teapot – I was worried. Susan suggested I make a « dignified statement » to the press too, about Rob Dartry and why we did not marry. I couldn’t possibly do that.

Dear Juliet,

Don’t worry about Gilly – you did not embarrass S&S; I’m only sorry that the tea wasn’t hotter and you didn’t aim lower.
