Blackheat - Sunday, 1951
Dearest Sylvia,
The date given above follows the example of Dante Gabriel Rosetti's - Tuesday 1850. As I have trouble with exact dates I am rather taken with it. Yes, you will see I am looking up the PRB: I daresay you know but Millais and Hunt visited Edward Lear at Fairlight, where, presumably, Lear was staying. I wish I were visiting near Fairlight this Sunday in 1951. However, your lion must get down to dates: his diary is by him now.
You say in you most recent letters that you will pro-ably come on Saturday or Sunday next. In an earlier let-ter you suggested such dates as 12th or 13th but (as you said at the time) you had the dates wrong. It was follow-ing those dates that I made the suggestions in my last let-ter about meeting you. I take it, now, that I can expect you on 15th or 16th, 1951.
John McHale has a party on Saturday, 15th. If you do come to town on that day would you mind if we put in an appearance? I would unhesitating skip it but I can meet there a man named Peploe (in the advertising business) and meet again two people I encountered fleetingly who have BBC connections. It would be delightful if you would come but do not want you to be overtired.
If you did not come until Sunday we will have Monday at home. Tuesday I have a lecture at the Tate on 'Impression-ism'; Wednesday I start at Banstead; Thursday, 'The School of Paris' (at the Tate). Otherwise I am free until the fol-lowing Tuesday. So, perhaps one of those three days would be the best time to see Muriel. I'm afraid this may be complicated reading but it is unavoidable: 'There', as we say, 'you are'.
What splendid news about the Cricket Field Gate: I am sure it will be what Rosetti and Brown would call 'A real stunner'. You have roughed it IN and painted the sky already! I am so pleased and excited to hear of this excellent start. Your account of the color is most vivid and I have an attract-ive mental picture of the scene.
I am sure Twinkle was very amusing, intentionally and un-intentionally. I envy you: or, rather, I eny your compan-ions. Would I had been there - my cat on my arm. Clifford ought to get Clerkson Rose's autobiography (just out), With a Twinkle in my Eye. It could go with Dusty Wusty's Diaries, and Kafka's, and Rousseau.

The date given above follows the example of Dante Gabriel
Rossetti's - Tuesday, 1850. As I have trouble with exact
dates I am rather taken with it. Yes, you will see I am

was staying. I wish I were visiting near Fairlight this
Sunday in 1951. However, your lion must get down to
