The Tiffy came for some of his stuff, so the cottage now a bit more habitable. R has now gone home for the night, coming back tomorrow. Y, her son, daughter-in-law and brood came in this afternoon to have books signed etc; when they had gone Geraldine with some cream cakes came from lunch party. The most perfect spring day, garden full of bird-song and everything bursting into leaf and flower.

Geraldine was a dear friend of many many years, a neighbour.
