Monday 11th March 1935

At 7.30 I left the chemmy lecture theatre, signed the lab. register and went down to meet Pegs. After a drink at the Duke of Wellington we went to see “Lives of a Bengal Lancer”… Damn the details!

It is just 2 o’clock and I’m alone in my room, still wearing my coat. ‘Tis cold.
Wonder what Peggy is doing now? I think she has just fallen asleep. The ashes of love were cast… as planned.

Blast it! I cannot write of the thing just now. Some other time.
