Drove into Lanson in the Pony cart to buy toys for the school children. It was a lovely morning, very clear & still. The ground was white with hoar frost.

Went to see the Morsheads & arranged for Tim Betts to come to us for a week as a companion for Nicholas. Lunched at the White Hart & there met Mrs Wollocombe & had a chat with her about her boys.

Tom is now a Major & has won a Military Cross. Bidlake has been made an Acting Lieutenant, Roger still a Corporal in the Cycling Corps. Had a beautiful drive home, lovely sunset. Reginald came home yest. looking very well.
