Still tired and under the weather. Gowing came round in the evening, all enthusiastic about the party. He said the place had looked great and he’d had a fantastic time.

Isn’t that from Wednesday?”

my diary?

I often see memoirs by people I’ve never even heard of and I don’t see why my diary should be any less interesting, just because I’m not a ‘celebrity’. I only wish I’d started it when I was younger.
