Went to American Consul for visa then took bus to Strand. No letters for anyone, accident in Colombo, boat held up for a week. Came back; the Halls, McCabe & Robin’s all had tea in my room.
Thirza Pidgeon’s 1937 World Tour – 12 April: Brixton markets
Monday, 12 April 1937
Cold and fine
Went to Australia House for letters then N.Z. House. Met Mrs Prentice, had lunch, then train to Buxton [sp? possibly Brixton and Brixton Markets]. Put me in mind of Colombo; men trying to drag you into the shops. In the markets bought a felt hat for 3/6. Had a good day, very tired.
