Advent Sunday
Refused to set foot out of the house all day. I did carry some egg shells to the dustbin, but that was all. Scrambled eggs and baked beans for breakfast after which we broke out into furious activity of a domestic nature and re-arranged the bedroom furniture. John is collecting our spare wardrobe at the weekend and we have a mass of paraphernalia to sort out. I half watched two films on the telly and played with the demijohns of wine.Bottled some apple wine which we started in January. Joyful domesticity, no less.
Auntie Mabel phoned to invite us to Sunday lunch on December 12. It's the night after Lazenby's (party) so I doubt whether we will be in a fit state to go. I will phone her next week.
Bessie phoned at 7. Graham and Gill have been to see them with Matthew. It's Dr Gaffikin's opinion that the baby looks like Bessie. The Lynns think he looks like Frank.
Ate a vast dinner and collapsed afterwards. Saw the final part of the RSC's 'Nickleby' on Channel 4 which took us to bedtime at 10. Looked at Harold Nicolson's diary 1930-64.
