January 15th 1974. Folded air-letter form of blue paper posted in Gibralter with Waugh's Tangier address on reverse. 'No, I missed your piece about Evelyn in Gay News. That is one of the disadvantages of living abroad. I don't see many magazines and there's no TV. I never saw the A.G. Macdonald cricket match. I wonder when Christopher Sykes will get down to the biography of E.W. He is very dilatory. I won't say that he is in danger of missing the bus, but he has been preceded.'
