- Nov 2 Wednesday Marie came to work and we got her room ready with rejected furniture & pictures from the attic. Alan & I went on bicycles to Montauban in the morning and I ordered two black corduroy trousers & a waistcoat, to measure, for 100 francs the trousers & 45 the waistcoat. And bought a black cotton heavy jacket for 45 francs. Returning; cleaned & polished the chandelier with ammonia. Dictionary with Alan and The Castle At midnight we all drank wine mulled with lemon peel, orange juice, cognac, sugar, nutmeg, water; and ate melted cheese with toast. Laura made a new hippocamp monument.
