Saturday April 3rd 1932

Walk to Bradgate Park with a party of Cubbers, including She. Took a snap on the bridge near the Gray Ruins, then back home through Swithland Woods. I still have this snap. Jack is playing the fool. She is standing to attention behind me and in front of the bespectacled Cliff Exton.

The latter was the clerk next senior to me at the office. He had lately become interested in scouting affairs. I went out with him sometimes. He had a negative effect on my life, in that when I took over a job from him, he did not brief me properly. As a result, I was dismissed from the B.U, through an error of negligence. However I did not know this at the time of our walk.
