December 16th – 19th
House arrangements finally completed, everyone goes to London for Christmas. Wynne looks for servants and finds none, and they all attend a magic show.
December 20th – 23rd
Three operas in one day, a play (Home and Beauty), independent taxi drivers and crowded tube trains. Christmas in London in fact.
December 24th – 26th
Christmas. Two church services are attended, but plenty of time for stockings in the morning and turkey and plum pudding in the evening.
December 27th – 31st
Cinderella, Peter Pan, a church service at the Tower of London, and a visit to the war-depleted Zoo. The New Year is seen in in style.
