Dear Grace
I haven’t written to you for a long time – and never answered your long letter about Prague – which I was so glad to have – I’ve seen Betty1 since then & I had news of you as well as her account of the concert. Write to me as soon as you feel inclined & let me konw all about yourself – & about the 4tet  – I love having your letters – but there seems very little to tell in reply.
I couldn’t face “Pierrot Lunaire”2
I’ve just given your address to Angela Bull3 to give to a college boy who is going out to Vienna – but I forget his name
Aren’t you coming back to England for a holiday soon – let me know
Yrs  RVW
