Good Friday Ap 19
Gelat came, and Jaime to kill the kid; which they did with loving
jokes from Jaime. Then Gelat told of his Carnarvon divorce experiences1: with
what he hadn't told before. He told the interpreter that they had been
promised everything. Where were the women? He found 4 that evening. Didn't go to bed until 6 a.m.
Ordered cake from baker, and arranged for Carl to change
"Cares & pastries" to "Cakes & pastries" on his signboard. "Lastima que
no fuese Jordi" a proverb.(Jordi, an ass.)2 Fetched lilac[RG] ribbon from Fábrica for L
[Laura]'s Easter dress.
Yellow daisies out.
Focus sent to:
Maisie | Len & Jane |
Isabel | Honor |
James | Gordon |
John & Lucie | Harold |
John Cullen | Tom & Julie |
Gelat excited. He found he could use a divining rod: more than that, found Molí spring 70 metres higher up than the fuente4. Inginiero5 says very strong & not very deep. "The most important day in the history of Deyá: water will reach Puig. Deyá is now able to be richer than Bañalbufar." But water starts on Antonio the Guitarrist's
land: ×××× [crossed out] will have to buy that back for 5000 pesetas.
