Transcript
  • Oct 18 Friday Finished letter to Left Review . Dahlias at their best. Anenomes nearly all up. Cuttings all seem to have taken. A few roses again. Maria Luna came for interview: seems all right, only too talkative, a little & too knowing, a little. Dug up no-me-veras-sin-sols & transplanted them across the path, with Karl's help. Also got sand to mix with the earth, for tulips. The old woman of Calabat came in sight with a sister & the Papa. Yesterday the Papa & the Médico were hanging about the Calabat side of Canellun & their idea is to buy the terraces, we think, & plague us into rebuying them. Gelat will get hold of the son-in-law. (Tried tonight) Schwartz came to the Sala: did not like the noise of the radio, otherwise all right. Tired by digging & went to bed, trying to get Address to Customers right.
