Wrote to M.L.C. on 12/10/21 Orchestra plays Miserere for my benefit. We have a ring at 5.15 and I answer it. At 5.30 I go forth to deliver message. I feed and groom the horse and practise piano for half an hour. I get out at 10 am to ring P.P. she won't have anything to say to me. I go to oxford St and luckily get on the same tram as P.P. Dick and Kit. We neither look nor speak in the tram but get off together and I go over much against P.P. wishes and will. She has an awful set on me and will scarcely speak as if I am a criminal. We eventually make ourselves happier. I am forbidden the house by K's action. I get asthma powder after hours. 9.30 boat.
