7 I have lost your address so I am sending this to the old one. Perhaps

11 I'd like to come & see the soup kitchen some day if you go back there.
12I am as usual spending as much time as I can in omnibuses, to get
13fresh air. I shall go later up to Scotland or Yorkshire to get cool,
14as I feel it already hot here.
