Carta de una señora rubia, emigrante, española, gruesa, que alquiló una habitación a un joven International Baccalaureate de España, en el 35 de Pembridge SQ en el barrio de Notting Hill Gate, a través de un párroco que paraba en la Capellanía Católica Española, una iglesia en Westminster, ubicada en el 47 de Palace Court W2 4LS, justo enfrente de la Catedral ortodoxa griega de Santa Sofía, donde casó el heredero de Constantino. Era una señora rubia, emigrante, española, gruesa que trabajaba en una pastelería en el barrio y sacaba un dinerito extra alquilando la habitación del fondo, en el ático, a españoles IB. Al final de la estancia se quedó con la semana de depósito, que ella dijo que nunca le cobró:
