Bank Holiday in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales
Hullo.
Well, here we go again. We arrived (that is, Sue, Pete, Lynn, Dave and me) at Pine Tops at a little after midnight. We let in the New Year. I kissed mother and gave her a lump of coal (why?).
We had a few drinks and chatted with various people on the phone. Dave G phoned from Stockport hospital. We ate a good deal and waited for John and Maria but they never materialised.
I walked down the lane in driving snow to Molly & Jim's. It was my first meeting with Molly since before July '77. Drank and ate there. Eventually, at about 5am, only Jimmy (Jun) and I remained. Karim _____________. Listened to weird music and had a lengthy conversation about drugs.
Home in bright sun and crisp snow at 8am. Slept until 2. Had a frosty reception from Mum and Dad _________.
Watched the telly. A Tommy Steele film of all things. Bed with square eyes at 1am.
