LA RONDE I have had a letter from Lord Gage
about the Christmas-card ramp to which I referred a fortnight ago. He says : 'This year we have had about 300 cards—this includes a number of trade cards from hotels. etc.—but the interesting thing is the growth of the official Christmas card, e.g., from the BOAC, BBC and South-Eastern Gas Board (though we have no gas). So far I have had nothing from the Electricity Board or BEA. Do you suppose the South-Eastern Gas Board send cards to the North-Eastern Gas Board? Does the Ministry of Transport send cards to the Board of Trade? Ought I to get my County Council [Sussex] to have a card itext year and send it to our official neighbours, such as the Astronomer Royal, Crawley New Town and the Mental Hospital, as well as all other local authorities?'
