Continued from Boulogne to Paris

(12th Dec 1924, Letter 15, part 3/3)

Well after the show we adjourned to a very nice little cafe where a lot of the theatre folk attend and a very nice end was put to a splendid evening.

As it was not early when I went to bed this morning my arrival at the breakfast table was long delayed and so I have just returned from a walk around and lunch, to write this letter.

Tonight I hope too see the bright lights of Monte Matre and then to bed as tomorrow I do the trip around Paris and Versailles and also Eiffel Tower so must be in good nick for it.

On Monday I leave Paris for a day or two to see over the battlefields around Arras and Amiens, Cambrai etc and return on Tuesday night so that will be that. and our Saturday I leave Paris for London and take my trip la premiere per air as it is my intention to fly to Croydon and then into London that way. It is a much quicker trip and nicer I hope as I shall be in London in 3 hours from here whereas it took me 11 the other way.

Well that is all the news so I will close down hoping you are all well,

Gordon.

Au Bon Accueil Toothpick


[Pictured at the bottom of this page is the envelope for this letter (from Hotel St-Petersbourg) and a toothpick from "Au Bon Accueil" 7, Rue du 29 Juillet. It seems from my web searches that there is now a Japanese restaurant at this address.]
