John and Maria were joined together in Holy Matrimony six years ago this day. I sent them a card bearing the following verse:
'Sing, dance and cheer, for our John and Maria,'
'Who now for six years have been wed'
'To Scotland they went'
'Now the money's all spent'
'And I don't think they get out of bed'
Mum and Dad went to Stranraer yesterday with Jim and Margaret. I can picture the mad, heaving party at Port Patrick. Ally foolishly spent all day doing housework and then at 4:00 we went to Morrison's and spent £16, quite a lot for us.

Jackie and Barry came at 8. We had a pub crawl to the 'Fiddler's Three', the 'Fire Brigade', the 'Drop Kick', and the 'Royal'. Barry is such amiable company. I attempted to play on the 'Space Invader' machine and give Barry a game, but blew myself up every time. Jackie seems so happy. They are going to join us with Dave L on April 3 for my birthday. Home at 11:30 and had a curry from over the road.
We closed the evening with lemon wine and Advocaat. Pissed. Jackie and Barry left after 1:45am.
