Reg and Wilma slept here
47 Hamilton Terrace
Wilma stayed in bed till teatime. Dr Moncrieff came to see her and found nothing wrong with her lung - intercostal rheumatism. Quite thinks she will get off on Friday.
Reg got back for a late tea.
Dr Moncrieff's sixth visit this year (to see Wilma)

Wilma slept here
Reg left after breakfast for Weymouth where he is meeting Aline and looking for a house. Wilma got her hair done and after lunch she and I went to Knightsbridge and bought 6 pairs of sheets for their guest house. Back to tea, and afterwards Wilma was very busy collecting things for her move to Studley Priory on Friday morning.

Reg and Wilma slept here
Wilma feeling poorly but Dr Moncrieff who saw her in the afternoon thought there was no reason why she should not be able to move tomorrow.
Great packing all day: the dining room loaded up with camp bed, etc. Anne and Sarah came to tea. Reg turned up later from Weymouth where he has purchased a house which he is renting to Aline. He had been seedy and thought he had some form of poisoning. Wilma put on her new frock which is charming.

Reg slept here
Some more snow, but luckily it stopped for the loading of the Lanchester. Wilma fetched it at 8 am, and after we had had breakfast, we loaded it with the help of Celia (Reg had already left for the Farm). Everything was got in - a masterly pack - and she started for Studley at 10 am. I shopped, came back for an early lunch and met Mabel at St Martin's at 2.15 for a short instruction on prayer.
Came back and lay down in my room till 6 o'clock as I was very tired. Reg returned about 7 feeling much better.

Reg slept here
Feeling tired and good for nothing. Got a wire from Wilma from Studley Priory saying "everything splendid". Went out to tea with Anne and Sarah.
Bitterly cold.
Sunday, 2 March
Reg slept here
Reg stopped in bed most of the morning but I walked to St John's Wood Chapel for Choral Eucharist.
After lunch we walked round the Serpentine which looked very lovely. Frozen of course, and swans and thousands of gulls huddled together on the ice.
Feeling particularly well.
