Transcript

• Aug 19 Friday. James set me a poem to write about a Signpost: he has one to write about Speed. I had great difficulty with mine. Changeable weather: Beryl sick but recovered towards night and was then stung in bed by a bee. Ethel who came to Montauban with me was very sick on her return, & sick all night. Laura got no work done. In odd moments I saw wood in the shed: mostly old oak boards. * Telephone installed. Called up Anita at once. But no night calls!
