Mother,
Thank you for the lovely bouquet of clematis. I'm sure that both I and my roommates will find them terribly useful for staying up late and studying, but meanwhile, I've had to put them on a table right outside our room so that they won't disturb our sleep! This is a particularly strong hybrid you've hit on this time, isn't it? I do so like that rich, purpley colour, too.
Now, I happen to know that I'll have the room to myself around eight o'clock on Friday morning (I shall skip breakfast), and that Fridays are when Father has early meetings in addition to being when Queenie's chorale group practises. So, by that calculation, you should be alone in the house at that time, yes?
Because I really do need to speak with you, Mother. In person. And I think a fire-chat should be as good an approximation as we can manage at short notice.
Please tell me that I can count on your for eight o'clock?
Love,
Daphne
