Virginia Woolf in London - late February, 1927

from The diary of Virginia Woolf. Vol.3, 1925-30, page 129:

And now the wind is making the tin screen over the gas fire rattle.  How we protect ourselves from the elements! Coming back last night I thought, owing to civilisation, I, who am now cold, wet, & hungry, can be warm & satisfied & listening to Mozart 4tet in 15 minutes.  And so I was.
