Midsummer Day (Quarter Day)

Another bad day. Rain all morning and cool. Dot and Jane home today. Finished raking gradd up round courts. Cleared the silage lab out. Went for petrol today. 1 gall. 707 miles on clock.

More rain again this morning. But fair after dinner. A calf to burn and a small pig. Finished mowing round the courts. Started to get it up.

A wet morning but a nice afternoon. Norman Harris brought 16 sacks of stuff to burn. A new countryman car came. Did some mowing round courts.

A dull cloudy day with rain at times. Washed B2 and K cars. Brushed the drive up. New joiner started here today. Pumped tyres up on the moped.

Not a bad day but cool out of the sun. Dot and Ron stayed the night. Jane very pleased to see them. Put soil to my spuds and cabbage.

Not a bad day but wind still cool and strong. Frank and Dora and David and his pal came. Dot and Ron got back about 5.30pm. Brought plenty to smoke.

A dry day with some sun. But a very strong wind. Car washing. T. Doc, making 73 to date. Cleaned out all the lab bins. Brushed up round steps.

Not bad. Some sun. Wind. On the cool side. Moving around the T courts. Nell had to take Jane to the docs. A bad cough. He said she was very healthy, thank God.

A nice day. Some sun. Not very hot. Jane seems happy so far but will be glad when Mum and Dad get back. Moved weeds from by the office and tidying up there.

Cooler today with heavy showers at times. Mowed in between other shed and cocked it up. Put most of the wood in the incinerator.
