Thursday 27 February 1919\
Janet's Birthday
Got to Euston at 6.15 am & then straight to Jermyn Court Hotel. Had to wait for brekker & a shave. Went out & saw about getting a job but missed everywhere. Was busy all day. Went to Marie's flat at 5.30 pm & took the big parcel of greens & the choc for Janet. Janet arrived late so we had to rush for dinner. Had a dinner at the Trocadero & then went to see Hello America. It was very good. Very bright & lively. Then back to the flat for supper. It was good too but none of us were hungry as we had eaten too many chocs.
Friday 28th February 1919
Saw about playing football but crashed again. Don't seem to have much luck at present. Will see how we start tomorrow. Marie & I went to the Zoo this afternoon & enjoyed it. Had dinner at some Soho restaurant and then out to the Old Vic theatre to see a Shakespeare play. A Winter's Tale. Gee I enjoyed it. It was great. The acting being excellent. Sent a parcel of views & my two diaries home to mother.
