Wilma slept here

Geraldine came to supper and she and Wilma decorated the little tree Wilma has given me.
Reg rang up to say his plans had changed and he would like to spend the night here tomorrow and meet Joan at Paddington on Wed morning.
Bitterly cold.

Wilma slept here
The first snowfall of the winter and very treacherous going. I lunched with Mabel who had invited the Mayers and we had a great feast of boiled fowl and Christmas pudding. Florence came in to do the cooking. Came back here for an early tea.
Wilma has bought a shoulder bag with part of her bonus but it arrived home split so she is taking it back to the shop to see what can be done.

Wilma slept here
Sharp frost and one has to watch one's step. I went to the Marylebone Food Office and arranged about a fresh food card for Wilma to replace the mysteriously lost one.
Reg and Joan arrived soon after lunch to leave the Flecker goose and a lot of presents, and to take back Joan's.
Later the 3 Grattans turned up for tea and took away all the presents for Wenham and left a lot here.
