- June 5 Friday. Went with Gelat for walk to Vinyet which was being ploughed by a white-faced mule with a red nose-band. Solomon thought this was blood & got very excited. 24 hour strike in Palma as protest against bombing of trades-union headquarters (nine injured). So no letters. Bartolome has finished path, is building seat beside it. Watered plants at the Posada, which have taken well. Rewrote first page of Antigua for the third or fourth time. Reading the Greek tragedians. Moved all the stores stoves to the casita : in hope of winter ending.
