& then
home to our "frugal meal" & got ready for the Pie! The dining table
had to leaves in & was crammed. Mal,
Char & Claude came down & we started in about 8:30 - after
taking a flash light pictures & were two hours opening things!
Everybody had a good time. Char was
delighted with the photograph book I started for
Henry. I got a lovely straw suit case from Mother - besides a lot of other
things. and a lovely green umbrella from Char. Later we had ice cream, chocolate & cake
& sat up till after midnight &
Marion & everybody seemed to enjoy
it hugely.
Dec 25 Tues.
Fine Christmas!
Late breakfast. I went to
Carings to see their presents. Elsie is home from
Norwich & she & Dolores came over here went up to Cro'nest & took some pictures of
Henry but had bad luck. The best
one the cap fell off & partly fogged it. Another he moved &
the third he was too bundled up anyway & its horrid of
Char. Henry got some rubber boots for Christmas! I had some
plum pudding up there & we had dinner here (a good one) about 4:30 and
then went over to Meta's to see the
Christmas
tree lighted up & the children's
things. Played flinch wrote lots of letter
tonight.
