HIS DAYAttending a Royal tour of inspection/military review with the King and Queen
England (not London; weekend country-house context)ⓘ
HER DAYProbably spending the weekend away from London at a private social engagement (very likely a country-house visit), rather than doing any formal/public work.. Likely ordinary weekend activities for her set: house-party socialising (meals, walks/drives, conversation), and letter-writing/receiving rather than structured “work”.
