 Bank Holiday in UK., Republic of Ireland, USA & Canada

Rectory, Kings Worthy.
Hoarse all day. Frank and Bessie took Ally and I to Chandler's Ford [where we'd left Audrey last night] for the 'Young Dixons' first 'drinks party'. Bessie interjecting some tremendous fun comments. Had a delicious fish paté. Most of the Hampshire guests left at 2:30 and Ally and I sat huddled on a settee for a further three hours. We took Michael and 'Dids' Lynn back to Kings Worthy rectory and then on to Chillandham Cross for the night. We declined Graham's invitation to join him at the Cart and Horses. We must be growing old. Cold ale on cold nights no longer fascinates.
