Saturday 24 November 1973

Got Ron’s fire going. Very windy. Roger came on his bike for a book.

Notes

Ron refers to Ron Douglas, grandma and grandad’s next-door neighbour at 168 Drayton High Road. The fire in question was a paraffin stove that Ron had given grandad the previous day. This is mentioned in Chapter 109.

Roger refers to me. Sadly, I don’t know what book I was collecting. I was 13 years old at this point. Details of other times we cycled to grandma and grandad’s in the early seventies are in Chapter 110.
