Fine snow falling + drifting at first but it faired by 11 + seemed fresher. S.S.E. [wind] Walked to Mavisbank, Curror Street, Backrow, Southport + Victoria Crescent + then motored to Foulford1, Sundhope, Gordon Arms + Henderland. The only bad drift was between Bengerburn + the school + fortunately the plough had just been through. Dorothy Barrie2 was pretty much exhausted when she got home yesterday but had a good night. I got back at 4.10. H.3 + D.4 were at Wellwood5 for tea.
