Angharad Rees. Card to Adams, enclosing a cutting from 'The Times'.

Sympathises about Adams's broken pelvis, notes that the card and notepaper are produced by her and her husband's new Cariad Cards venture, complains that they sound like 'absolute morons' in the enclosed article ('which of course we are'), and hopes Adams will visit soon. Manuscript.

The cutting is in two pieces: an article and a photograph. The former appears to have been enclosed with the card; the latter was found elsewhere in Adams's papers and has been united with the other pieces for convenience's sake. It is possible that at least one piece of the cutting was not sent by Rees and was separately acquired by Adams. The article and photograph caption spell Rees's husband Christopher Cazenove's surname 'Cavenove'.
