Format Correspondence

User-Contributed Transcription at all or were weeks late- one from my bank around the corner, posted July 15, arived on the 30th!!
I mailed the Richard Harris letter & hope to hear from him. If I don't, I've arranged with a mutual friend to be told when he gets back here & will phone him the moment he does. Lovely to hear that Jenny may be back in N.Y. soon- maybe she'll stay in one place long enough for me to write her!
All is well here. Jack is about to start- or at least start preparing- a new movie. My chums still aren't back from Brazil so I don't know if they saw Teddy or not. Peter is in the throes of preparing the new Bond pic & "grooming" the new 007. He sends his love- as do Jack & Haya.
More very soon. Meantime thank you again, Rose dear & all my love as always- Jeanie [Sims]
PS. It was lovely talking to you again & I'm delighted you're thinking of coming over here, or at least to Ireland- but via London I hope!

[Transcriber Note: Peter refers to Peter Hunt who directed Bond film "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," and Jack referred to is Jack Clayton, film director, and Haya refers to Haya Harareet, Israeli actress and Jack's wife.
