December 1952

Monday 15

Cold day with light drizzle now and again. I worked well on house & Pixies demand. Minced meat for Mrs A & stewed peaches for her also. Put up mother's yellow silk lace curtains in hall - they go with the cream of the cleaned wall. Took Mrs Bennetts a glorious fig. About a doz. in the first crop I saved by putting them in paper bags. Cut some lovely bunches of hydrangeas, but they are just going off. Una Kidgell rang up a long call & told me even Garry Gordon is lately decd.
