The Diary in May
Fine weather at last lifts Wynne's spirits, but visits to the dentist prove less pleasant.
May 1st – 12th
A round of “calls”, dentist vists and leave takings. Wynne wishes that paying calls could be abolished…a strange ritual.
May 13th – 21st
Rogation Day is celebrated in the open air – a return to old practice. Jumble sales and more teeth agony.
May 24th – 29th
Wynne’s husband comes for a brief visit, and then they go to London. Women’s suffrage enrages a male friend!
May 30th – 31st
In London Wynne manages to get to two opera’s, conducted by Beecham: Othello and The Girl from the Golden West.
