Sunday 6 June 1926

Went to Prims.

Notes

Grandad went to “Prims”. “Prims” is a reference to Primitive Methodists, in general, and to Bourne Primitive Methodist Chapel in Kirkby, specifically, see Chapter 17. He probably went with grandma, Ethel Cirket. They were “courting” at this time and would marry in 1930, see Chapter 16.

I am not sure but the handwriting looks very different from other entries. I wonder if grandma wrote it for him. However, although she did this for him later in life when he was ill, I am not sure why she would have done this so early before they were married. Perhaps it was grandad and he was just trying to write more neatly!
