Up about ten oclock, and had breakfast in the room, and after Mr. & Mrs. Wells and George and I went out to see Jennie. She lives at Gillingham, Kent, 38 miles from London. It was a beautiful drive. We took her for a drive and she treated us for tea. Coming home we were held up by a centry at the point of a bayonet for our lights and told to put them out. Went to Simpson's for dinner. Weather beautiful.

I just love that you post these :)
What a wonderful diary. Fun to look back to another era. Your Gram looks a lot like my Gram looked back then. I had to look twice. Hope you post more pages.
Suki, this IS so interesting! You are so lucky to have this journal, her photos and - her actual words!
Love,
♥ Robin ♥

Utterly delightful and conjures so many images and a very specific time period with an economy of words.
Suki, Love that you have this diary and that you share it.
xoxo
What a charming post! How sweet you have this old wonderful diary!
Hi Suki, I am also glad you post these, because they are quite inspiring. Your Grandmother seems as though she led a lovely life in London, despite the bayonet incident.
I also love your new header!
PS, remember your Grandmother didn't have spell check like many of us! I am thankful every single day for it!
Yay for
grandma diaries! Woot!
Oh Sukie this is amazing- to have these with you- she will be here always.
