K:
Hello, Anatol.
D:
Oh, hello, Henry, how are you?
K:
Okay.
D:
How's about your cold? I was told that you are, I mean, in very
bad shape. It was very bad cold. Is it so?
K:
Yeah, I was really in bad shape. I'm getting better though.
D:
Now it's better. I really would like just to say "Merry Christmas
and a very guzuntite'(?) SO to speak. The very best, I should say.
Henry, do you intend to go to the place, you remember
K:
Acapulco?
D:
Yeah.
\ K:
I haven't decided yet.
D:
Because, I speak very privately, on this basis, I received a telegram
from Brezhnev. He asked me or just to notify to come in the first
[decade] of January. There will be a meeting in Moscow of top
people around to look at
of 1974 SO he asked me to be in
the first [decade]. I refuse it yesterday. At the same time in this
connection, I didn't know whether you will be here. If you will be
here, I will definitely stay here and no questions. If you go, then
maybe I will drop in for couple of days there if I will have a chance
to speak with you in a very general, informal way.
K:
Absolutely. Now I'm not sure -- How long will you be in Acapulco?
should
D:
If I should be there for a couple of days, I / be back on the 2nd.
K:
Oh, I wouldn't go before the 29th if I went.
D:
Oh, not before 29th?
K:
No.
