Light a 5 second one, i.e., flash for ½ second then 4½ sec. before it shows again. 1 troop ship,1 gun boat, 2 ordinary passed. Glorious breeze & blue ocean. 2 competitions – "Word" I got 53. Eye in pig – S. Gill won. 2 sisters ill, Doonar & Dowie, latter T. 101.2, pain in chest, etc.
Packing for last time on A.33. Clocks are normal now, no moving forward daily.
