"Penrhos is over – & the beginning of the Season. How unlike a season it has felt – ceaseless rain, bananas instead of strawberries, winter combinations & every friend stricken down by some mortal disease... Margot in a state of utter breakdown here sleeping badly losing weight, constant deadly sickness & no progress of any kind... I had a full week before coming here - Annie's ball on Tuesday for which I had a dinner of 24."
