Same fair weather. Motored to Yair + Fairnilee Lodge. Gave chlor[oform] at Viewfield for a circum[cision] (Allan Riddell). Saw a few town cases + did various things for going away. Had a surprise visit from Frank Muir + Dorothy1 on their way motoring from Faldon [?] to Moffat. Frank thinks he can do something to help us with the repair to the Swift.

Got some of my packing done.
