New Moon
5 Club Street, Lidget Green, Bradford
Home on the first train again getting to Bradford for 9am. We saw Sir Peter Parker, chairman of British Rail, running across York station in his bowler hat. Ally phoned her Dad to enquire about a bank loan for a new car. We want £2,500 or £3,000. He sees no reason why we cannot have one. He is going to deal with the manager of 69, Market Street, and so it is the open road and here we come again. Phoned Mum. They are coming to see Sue and suggest a meeting._______. Ally has doubts about moving our furniture to Middlesbrough. Frank is furious about it. I phoned Colin Black telling him we will have to pay £200 to move our humble belongings and he says 'hire a van'. We do not like this idea. We will go back to Middlesbrough and buy new stuff up there, or second hand, and sell it when we move on, leaving Club St untouched. We went to look at cars. Unimpressed by the Ford Fiesta which we thought tinny. We took a fancy to the Mini Metro at Albert Farnell's. We saw a red one, two years old, 9,000 miles on the clock, £3,000. Came away without one and decide to buy one in Middlesbrough. Found Mum, Dad, Sue, Christopher, Lynn, Frances and Katie at Club St. They'd been and got the key from Mary. The children were all horribly over-tired and fretful. Lynn was in a foul mood and had been forced to come. _______. David arrived and they all went taking the kids at 6:30. Katie is to be christened in Oct/Nov and we were commanded to be present. Lynn fails to realise that we are now committed. Restful evening with Mum and Dad. John and Janette arrived at 7:30. He is thinking of going into business with a colleague (Steve Ettenfield) . Janette has been sacked from her job as a waitress at the White Cross, chatting with someone in the loo, she referred to the landlady as a 'silly old cow' unaware that she was sitting quietly in the lavatory. Bed after 12.
