 Moorhouse Inn

Mum & Dad's Pearl wedding anniversary, somewhat spoiled by Susie's absence, and the expected baby. Ally and I were in town at 5pm looking fo white shoes. It's the sort of thing we used to laugh at Maria doing. Dave G and Billy walked in at 6pm as we were blowing up balloons. _____ A table was set up downstairs at 7:30, and people drifted in too numerous to list here. Mostly family, and a few friends. Lynn looking fat and tanned. David studious and quiet. I became intoxicated and staggered around. Tim and Jill full of talk of Spain, &c. Hilda was dull because she's on a diet consisting of drinking nothing but bitter lemon. We all went upstairs at 10:30 after Billy's cabaret, and the party went on until dawn. Bodies, bottles, and black pudding everywhere.
