Wednesday 13rh February 1935

My twenty second birthday (quite unofficially!)

An uneventful day. Rained at lunchtime. Making the new “synthetic” varnish at the Works.

Evening, homework, letters and the wireless.

I had been feeling disconsolate, foreseeing only trouble to come. Then a wireless programme of 1921 put my thoughts into a different channel.

How long and changeful is life! Everyday troubles are just part of it and insignificant!
