31 March 1959. The Zoo; not so interested and choir singing
31 March 1959 My dear Len and Margaret Although it’s now gone 9 o’clock and I’ve finished my Canadian letters, I feel I must start a few lines on my Glasgow letter, otherwise you good people will not receive your weekly letter. I blame holidays for this, why must there be holidays, they disturb the usual routine. In less than 3 hours March will have passed away, it is disappearing as a lamb, today has been perfect weather, sunshine the whole day. It has been like a summer day, the sun was warm. Yesterday Easter Monday was fine and dry, but there was a cold wind, people needed their coats. Still it was fine enough for people to go out in the country, this made up for Sunday’s rainy day. Wednesday evening Here I am again to see if I can get through this letter so that it can be mailed in the morning. I don’t really like to be so late with my letters. I am trying hard so that you can have it. First of all I want to thank you very much for the lovely picture you sent us...
