September 11, 1978

This morning Mummy + I made two 3 ½ lb of fruit batches of damson jam. That was fun. Then after lunch Mummy, Bobby and I went swimming. My crawl is greatly improving. After that Francie came to play but Bobby played with her while I earned 20p picking blackberrys. After supper I went to Guides which was nice.

I’ve been thinking today about what I was doing on the same day 5 years ago – as it happens, making a plane journey – from the UK to Kenya.
