Dear Diary,
A sedentary day full of introspection. All the occupants of the Grange seemed purposeful and engaged yet I wandered aimlessly about the house and grounds looking for amusement and found none. Ned was away to visit Titty but on the pretence that he was assisting Farmer Clamp, at market, with his bullocks. I had no appetite for riding or walking and just allowed myself to become melancholic in my lonliness. I tortured myself with thoughts of Mr Fairweather and ruminated upon the reasons why I am still alone and blamed it all upon myself.
It was nice to receive a letter from Dr Cojones who was making a great 'recobery' in 'Estoke on Trent' and who said he had been 'bisited upon by a bery attractive lady who asked many questions about you ,Wine.' He did not enlighten me further but because of my fug, I cared not.

Dear Wayne,
Sedentary, introspection, wandered aimlessly, no appetite, melancholic, lonliness, tortured myself, ruminated, I am still alone, blamed it all upon myself, my fug, I cared not.
For a moment I thought I was reading my own diary.
With you in thought,
B.
And I pray that the bery attractive lady may be Mrs. Norris and not (shudder) Belinda Sue, who might pursue you as a way of getting to me!
My dear Mr Moose,
Mrs Norris once said when I was at a particularly low ebb;
"It is all part of life's rich tapestry. There have to be black bits to make the colours stand out."
I replied, "Yes, but my tapestry is completely black!"
However, you cannot keep a good man down...(and Lord knows, I'm willing to try given the chance!) Tomorrow is another day!
Yours resiliently,
Wayne Austen
My dear distant Mr 'Humbert?'
I have suffered enough recently at the hands of a scorned woman. I trust you keep your harridans to yourself!
Yours nervously,
Wayne Austen
Dear Wayne,
"you cannot keep a good man down...(and Lord knows, I'm willing to try given the chance!) Tomorrow is another day!"
It is good to read these encouraging words today things are never all black.
I recall another saying about a good man but I am not sure if it is 'A good man is hard to find' or is it 'A hard man is good to find' but I'd take either.
Yours in delightful confusion,
B.
