– rain

I go to Congregational Church @ Egham 6:30 pm.  Ill in bed all morning, caught cold yesterday so had bad night. It rains heavy all day.  The airman who came down on the parade ground could not restart owing to his personal tank getting the wrong kind of oil & gas!!!

Receive letter from Erlysman Pinckney Esq. of Highbury, Warminister Wilts.
