Transcription Notes
A much finer day, warmer and less wind. Woke up feeling desperate — must be gouty I think. I take the proofs of the R[unning] Set to Gray or rather to Trench while Maud is out shopping. Maud and I lunched downstairs and after tea went round to the Gilman Studio to take exams for Elementary & C[ountry] D[ance] certificates — all Rabold’s pupils. We passed 7 out of the eight elementaries and 2 out of the 5 C[ountry] D[ance] candidates. It took us a long time as there were several on the border line. Miss Gilman did very well and passed her elementary in flying colours as did also Mr Regan & Mr Smith of Columbia (old Stratford on Avon). Maud and I dined quietly downstairs then I went out to the Webster Hotel to meet Miss Hewitt with whom I chatted & smoked cigarettes until 10 p.m. Feel rather better in the evening but I am far from well. I am afraid it is because I have widened my diet. And the worst of it is I do not see how I can help doing so in the present state of the food market!Location
