[Tuesday 6 February 1883]

Did nothing particular. Miss
Shadforth & I helped the gins to
wash all the morning. It was
very hot. No rain yet. The washing
is all taken down to the bank of
the creek, & boiled in Kerosene
tins.

[Wednesday 7]

Intensely hot today. I never
felt anything like the heat
I do miss the fruits & vegetables.
There is no such luxury up here.
Mr. Lamb left this morning. Last
night we brought our blankets out
into the verandah, it was too
hot to be indoors. Ironed all the
afternoon.
