Dame Akehurst, a-washing for me half the day, dined with me on the remains of yesterday’s dinner. At home all day and pretty busy. In the evening Master Hook and I played a few games of cribbage (after having written my London letters), but neither of us won or lost. Dame Akehurst took part of my servant’s bed. In the first part of the day we had a very fine sunshine weather, but in the evening more rain.
