 Moorhouse Inn, Leeds

Busy. Marlene and Frank appeared for lunch when our food supplies were virtually exhausted. we managed to feed them. At 2 we went upstairs where they inspected Samuel who was tootling around at great speed in his baby-walker. They left after an hour promiosing to attend our Halloween extravaganza on Saturday. Marlene is a very sweet 'Wilson' and has something of Motherdear about her. 

Tonight the pool players gave Ally flowers and a card for the sandwiches which was nice of them. We had a busy, lively evening for a Monday. Mum and Dad arrived at 10:20 and we sat for a few quick ones. Mum did look fresh and healthy and consumed tomato juice. We gave them a portrait of Samuel which seemed to delight them both and we went upstairs happy and friendly as in days of old. Dad went to bed and we talked with Mum until nearly 3am.
