Thought I would let you know that I am in Palm Beach. I have fired the couple that used to work here and have hired a new couple. I am spring cleaning and it is GROSS. I have found items in the fridge circa 1988!

I can just imagine you in Palm Beach making a grand autumn cleaning. There is nothing more foul than a dirty fridge or kitchen. On the other hand, it is well known that : When the cat is away, the mice will play! and that if the couple that was supposed to look after Palm Beach realised you were hardly there, they took advantage of you. You are certainly better without them and I hope that the new pair will be good. Servants are a perpetual headache for any house owner and you and Jeffrey own 9 or 10 if I am not mistaken (and counting the plane as one), so that your troubles are necessarily multiplied tenfold!

I am leaving for Paris tomorrow and will be in London on Monday morning around 10am, for 5 days, leaving again for Paris and Nancy hospital on Saturday 21st. From there, I will return to Paris and Fraytet where I will be staying until the end of October. From there, I will be going to Prague for 4 days, health permitting, and from there back to Fraytet and hopefully to Dax for a cure of 3 weeks for my arthritic pains. it is very strange for me to have my life dictated by my health and not by work imperatives! May be this is the start of my retirement at last.

Thank you for keeping in touch.
All my love
