A focus on family history
Friday, 23 April 1937
A nice day but cold – went down to Russell Square to meet the N.Z. folks, not having seen them for a week – had lunch, bought new coat, brown, then took green car to Windsor Castle. Lovely drive, walked all around the grounds, great crowd. Feeling very tired after dinner. Went down to the flat to spend evening with the Davidsons & Mr Hyland. Arrived home about 12.

A little sun but very cold still. Went to get mail. Met Mrs Davidson in Australia House, asked me to go and visit them. Paid for my coronation seat, 10/-, then took bus to London Bridge, back again to Piccadilly. Had lunch at Lyons, then met the Davidsons again. Bought some wool to make knee pads, feel the cold in my knees. Arrived home at 5 feeling very tired. Spent about 2 hours in Swan and Edgar, a lovely shop. Took Mrs Roberts to supper.
