Transcript
  • Friday Ap 26 All morning, except for walking with Gelat to see his Vinyet, with Salamo off his lead for first time, spent going over Canellun & Can Torrent, rearranging. In afternoon decided suddenly to go to Palma. Went at 2,45, back at 8. At Casas bought blue plate for Can Torrent comedor , big [au]fabi for entrada at Canellun, brown-yellow vase and two brown-ware jars. At Margarita's bought red and green coverlet and red ecclesiastical ribbon. Framed birds & royalties a success. Bought linen stuff for trousers. Beefsteak & potatoes at Alhambra, also prawns and salted dried sturgeon from the Macarena vendor. Laura & Karl bought me a lamp-shade. DeServiez came. Today removed stoves to the cellar. At about 12 o'clock at night something like a series of earthquake shocks: Isabel's mother noticed it too.
