October 26, 1978

What a day! First we fooled a bit + then Fiona took B + Bob + I to B's friend's house. She has a pony. We could not ride her for she was in foal but we groomed her which was lovely, wonderful. Then we played Totopoly. My horse won, with the aid of an unbreakable run and an unburstable blood vessel. After a scrumptious lunch we came back to Oxford anhd we waited from 3.15 to 5.00 to see Watership Down. It was super, but rather sad in places. You see, these five or six rabbits live in a warren which is to be built on top of, and one of them senses this. The five or six rabbits beleive him, so they run away. They have one doe with them but she is killed, so when they find a nice new warren they go and get some other rabbits from a sort of Communist warren. The police rabbits and leader come + fight them but the police lose. At the very end the rabbit who started it off dies.

Biddy went to a "good school" so I suppose her friends were rather more high class than mine - I don't think any of mine had ponies!
All together now... Bright Eyes...
