Today, my family went out to visit other members of the family. I stayed behind. An empty house is very peaceful! I listened to several songs by Brenda Wootton. There are songs by her in the English, Cornish and Breton languages. "Pasties and Cream" is a popular song. It mentions "tin in the stream" and "pilchards and herrings that sparkle and gleam".

Mishaps come in threes, but I have had more than three disasters already. What is the problem today? Our daughter is ill and she can't collect her children. I must entertain them.

The washing machine worked non-stop for many hours.
