Friday 1.

 


Met friends for coffee and croisants in town this morning. After lunch worked in workshop making bone parts for small georgian 'spinning Jenny' automata. at 3.45p.m. we drove into Colchester, and took the above photo from moving car as sun went down. To Colchester Hospital, saw surgeon, who decided that further minor op would probably be advantageous. Probably in January/February. Early supper tonight as we're going to the cinema club to see 'The young Victoria'. Seen the adverts for it showing a swan necked young actress playing the part. Can't think it's good casting, as her late Majesty, even when young, was rather short necked and dumpy- sorry, that's ungallant. But truthful. Being called for supper. May report back on the film later.

Emily Blunt I believe.

I'm sure I read somewhere that she was a distant relative of the late Anthony of treachourous spy infamy.

Enjoy the film (or fillum as my grandad used to say)

Thank you, Lori. I'll have another look at it.
Thank you, 4Ds. We did.

P.S. And that's a fascinating footnote to history, 4Ds.
