We cooked a lovely big fish this afternoon. Altogether we never spoilt anything so far + everything was not only palatable but excellent. Though may be it is only because I’m not so particular about food. We made green pea soup too, very good, and a savoury. – We meant to go part of the way together…

The Legate’s Mass this morning. My seat though more expensive was worse than the previous one. – In the afternoon Martha came so I gave her my green membership card. I had grave pricks of conscience for being so selfish as to keep the excellent seat I had as a present from Anci for myself after…

There was a meeting at the Redoute at 11 a.m at which Sándor was to make a speech too. I went was a bit late of course but so at least Anci had a good chance to see me coming in. Sándor spoke very well indeed. Both the contents of his speech + his way of speaking intonation etc. were excellent. I…

Had to do in town, was at Cica’s too and heard that they were to be off for Kenderes the very day. She was out I couldn’t wait for her return so just left a message. As my cough was worse than ever decided to have my lungs examined if possible and being near the place went to see Vin. He nearly had…

I decided to take part in the Mass for the Youth of the Eucharistic Congress. Yesterday I bought a green membership card + went to confession. In future I’ll go to conf. only once in a month + will try to keep to it strictly, so farewell to all the dark patches in my life. I managed to buy a seat…

I was most shocked. In spite of my hearty reassurances that I won’t go to Martha’s this afternoon Mother promised her that I would, when she phoned. The kids were rather bad and though M. returned early I came home late again. I nearly had a quarrel with Martha over different questions. If things go…

At the cemetery this afternoon. Went to a most fashionable theatre show Fedák in Mágnás Miska. The performance was quite good, but the place itself slightly dirty, the people slightly common and I was highly amused. My cold is worse.   (Színházi Élet 1938/21. sz.)

Had to do in town again and took the “espresso” to Cica at the same time. Didn’t expect to go in, but they were just home from the registrar’s office + there was some company. Was invited to go in. Met the two best men also. The young couple was awfully happy naturally. Jancsi doesn’t look at all…

Had to do in town, was at the dress makers too. Went to see Cica as I was going round had a good look at her new things and we had a good talk and a good laugh too. Their wedding is going to be most modern with no first night as she is having her period and the Drs were wise enough not to interfere…

Arrived to gymn late but worked only on the second lesson as it was. I was the only to appear, later Lonci arrived, however, but didn’t practice. It was a good lesson, though just a bit lazy sort, especially at the end when we were left to our own desires. I showed the people some  . jumps but only…
