Morning stoped at home. Afternoon went to the sands my house that I built yesterday is still standing. Sophie and Grandmama came before tea. After tea Sophie and Papa and me played dominoes. I beat then we played at muggins Papa beat I was second. Maurice and Grandmama and Mama played at race. Lessons went on very well. Papa gave us two pennys.
