Good Friday

A cold East wind still. Got up about 9.30am. Put five rows of early spuds in. Ron brought little Jane to see us. No one else came during the day. Had a nice quiet day.

A slight frost this morning but a lovely sunny day. Only two cars this week. H.T. making 64 to date. Cleared all the bins out today and did all the Ts. A big lot of stuff to burn.

A strong N.W. wind blowing rather cold but no rain. Saw a daffodil out in the wood. Cleaned T. car. Cleaned H and C filters No.1. burner. Loaded rubbish on trailer.

Nice and mild but heavy rain all day. Cleaned H car and both the jets now not going too well as yet. Bright Sides took old section away. Burnt more books.

A lovely mild, sunny day. Working nearly all day on No.1 burner. Had to put new olives on all pipes. Didn’t wash any cars. Did two of the Ts. Still burning books. Lot left yet.

Clocks went on 1 hr last night. Got up about 9.30 and did the mowing. Put all my dahlias out. Ron, Dot and Jane came for dinner. Stayed until about 7pm.

Day off again today. A nice mild day for a change. Pruned next door’s roses and tied up my own climbers. Went to P in the pm. Did mowing for the first time. Pruned roses.

A lovely fine day for a change. Bright Sides finished boiler. Car washing again. T.B.G.A. making 62 to date. No time for the Ts today. Men started to tile the pm room.

Still very cold again with sleet changing to rain. Gone a bit warmer. A whole pile of books to burn from the library* and a lot of sacks. Did all the Ts.

(*Assume these were out of date veterinary books, just in case anyone is worried.)

Another very cold day. Strong East winds. Bright Side’s men working on boiler. New section came yesterday. Cleared out the silage lab. Two bins and did the Ts.
