- Tuesday Feb 26th Gelat & Bernardo came and I spent the whole morning with Gelat on Luna land looking at possible places to build new terraces to make room for almond trees. This means removing a number of old olives but they are past bearing and are worth 5O-1OO pesetas each as timber. In several places they will pay for the work & for the new trees. Also decided on the square concrete posts (Laura,Gelat & I) with wood transoms for training the vines across in Canellun garden near the front entrance & also below in the grotto. Also decided to begin mending the road to the sea which was carried away in a cloudburst on the night of Sept.29th 1933. And on gate to keep out sheep on the camino viejo Visit from Regnaults of Cala Ratxada. Miguel the carpenter fixed door at top of staircase & cellar lavatory door. Three versions of a poem To Bring the Dead to Life A letter from Sidney Bernstein expressing disgust about the Belfrage paragraph in the Daily Express .
