We had a lot to say to each other.\nThe thought has just occurred to me that in\nseveral hours of conversation politics wasn\u2019t\nmentioned! He lives for his work (teaching\nart),house and garden \u2014 probably doesn\u2019t\nknow the name of the P.M.! Yet he can tell\none the measurements of every cathedral in\nEurope and such-like.\n\nHave you heard this one ? Someone wrote\non a wall JESUS SAVES. To which was added,in\nanother hand, MOSES INVESTS.\n\nA wall I pass every day,in a street off\nHolland Park Ave., has an inscription in\nhuge letters : WHY NOT ?\n\nI may have told you I had a nice letter\nfrom Howard S. He said he was \"astounded\"\nat the Arts Council decision.\n\nHope you can manage to come to Holbrook/\nJB reading on 26th.\n\nLove to you both - Robert\n\n1 1/2 pints of beer today,\n1/2 at lunch, 1 pint this evg.\nSipping orange juice as I type\nand wallowing in self-pity.\n","Type":"Text"}}]
