The Diary in March
Still living in the small huts, and worrying about their cases of furniture as the rains come, causing havoc.
Still living in the small huts, and worrying about their cases of furniture as the rains come, causing havoc.
March 2nd – 8th
The first rain exposes the inadequacy of their roof, which leaks like a sieve.
March 9th – 14th
The larger mud house is progressing, and Wynne visits neighbours to find out what to grow. She comments on the local town, which consists of only a few buildings, but notes that the arrival of the new railway will change all that soon.
March 15th – 22nd
Hold-ups with the new house and the rains begin in earnest. Wynne notes the new mania for doing crosswords in the paper.
March 23rd – 31st
The six large packing cases of furniture have caused endless problems, and the weather has affected the contents. Wynne is longing to unpack, and sleep in a proper bed with proper sheets!
