Tolkien was glad to get Christopher's letter, he had been waiting to write, needing his new address.
He mentions the weather, and fruits which are growing, and wonders if he can send Christopher some plums.
Tolkien says also that he has been to Magdalen to finish the reading of his essay, which he has handed to Charles Williams.
The family had been to St. Gregory's, which he notes included an “admirably restrained” talk about Rome.
