HIS DAYGuildhall function. House of Commons debate.

HER DAYLikely in London, keeping up her usual social round: dining with the Lyells earlier in the week, and moving in the circle that included Lady Ottoline Morrell (Asquith expects only a glimpse of her at “Ottoline’s”).. Probably corresponding intermittently with Asquith, though he complains repeatedly in early/mid-May that he has no clear idea of her plans and wishes she would write.. Planning to meet Asquith later in the week: he is trying to secure time with her (a motor/drive and, by 11 May, an invitation to attend the Naval & Military Tournament on Friday afternoon in the royal box).
