This morning Helga called and had coffee. She had with her a friend of hers who we'd met before - Rosemary. Rosemary (like Helga originally) is German. Also like Helga she speaks perfect English. Unlike Helga, she is interested in, and collects, antiques. So she and I spent a very happy hour comparing notes. Also this morning Martin L. called and collected a clock I have been doing up. Large, late Victorian wall clock. Not really early enough to be interesting, but Martin is a friend. And anyway, the clock was solidly well made and I rather enjoyed doing it, so must try harder not to be a snob about 19th century items. Martin was pleased to have it going again. Scrabble club this afternoon. Three good games. Won the first. Phyllis won the second. The third, rather unusually was a draw between Phyllis and Kevin. Very pleasant afternoon. Spent evening in workshop. Went well. Roast mutton for supper. Very good. Off to bed now. Goodnight all.
