A delightful day: sunny + warm but with a cooling E wind. Agnes + Maggie1 left by the 9.37. I have enjoyed their visit greatly. Cycled to Hospital, several mills + Oakwood. [word deleted] Got photo group of Guy, Helen2 + Dora3 + there was a copy for the Logans which arrived after they had left. Wrote Guy’s Helen: ordered some cigarettes. Helen4 + circus men at Elmpark5 for tea. Berries on Rowan tree actually showing redness.
