Fine day with a good deal of sun. Slight touch of frost. Snow all gone from Park: remains of sweeping still in streets. Slight showers. Had much smaller list + finished (by motoring) by 1.20. Hoped for a quiet afternoon but was called out first to Mrs Trotter, Kirkwynd1 + later to John Neil Bell, Mill Street2. Besides these interruptions Willie Lang3 came + stayed quite ¾ of an hour. I had people in from 6 till 7.50! David4 called at 9.30.
