Monday 1.



Further to telephone conversation of about ten minutes ago with sister-in-law Judy, herewith is photo of the amarilys bulb that you gave Ann last November, now in full bloom, with two main stems of four flowers each. It's a beauty, a glorious velvet red.
 Been getting on in the workshop today (but only slowly, I'm afraid) - got at least another day's work on the case of the wall clock before I start on the movement, then the dial. Oh well - satisfying job. Got a lantern clock to sort out after that, then a snaphaunce carbine - should keep me going at least into March. It's good to have plenty of work waiting for me.
Being called upstairs to supper now. Bit more later perhaps.

Sister-in-law Judy sends her love and compliments you on your bulb-husbandry. Hope Ann is feeling a bit better, sloe gin or honeyed brandy is very good for tickly coughs... about half a pint should make her feel better!(or at least different!)

Beautiful! One of mine is just starting to come to life.
