Progress of house building; extra expense and days lost through replacement of faulty windows, re-hanging a door, missing door locks and window glass of wrong thickness (ink sketches of windows and door latches on two pages); bills of £120 this month, economy needed; bookshelves fitted in study but no shelves elsewhere, house full of unpacked crates; work on garden and greenhouse; sheep, cattle and horses nibbling plants; "Manx Codlen" and "Northern Greening" apples in orchard; teak front door begun; parrot now well and beginning to talk.
