Monday August 29th 1932

To the river with Cliff Exton. Both swam up river to the Abbey Bridge and back ‑ nearly 1/2 mile. (This is the Bridge I had walked over on the night the family left Leicester ‑ the night I heard 'Blue Heaven').

Plans are being made for a long hike in Wales with Mr Wood, in the September holidays. We may start from Worcester or Gloucester. Today, Dad sent £1 towards the expenses.
