A lovely sunny day. Warm. Did a bit of gardening. Went to E Port for tea. Got back about 10p.m. Frank and Dora came. Didn’t stay.

(I think “E Port for tea is Ellesmere Port, where my Aunty Lou lived, Granddad’s cousin. Frank was my grandma’s brother.)

A day off today. A lovely day, warm sunshine. Went to P. Got money for plants for Bill Edwards. Dot and Nell went to see Ron. Hoping to get out Monday.

A lovely sunny day but the wind still cold. Went to Neston to get sick pay. Car washing. H. Polish. D. S.K. Making 125 to date. Harry Welsh had his operation. Good luck Harry.

Wind still very cold but sunny. Nell has gone on Fellowship outing. Cleared drains blocked in the fields. Mowing grass by the paddock and raking up.

Very heavy rain first thing. Strong wind blowing very cold. Got dahlias off Joss last night. Finished cleaning boilers. Painted the burners. Washed the floor.

A nice day with sunshine but the wind still blows cold. Working on the boilers again today. Swept the chimneys. Barrow full of soot. Kettle in trouble with woman.*
