Sunday 18th September 1811

Dear Diary,
We took Mr Griffiths out for Brunch and showed him something of our Nethers.
We spent a pleasant afternoon wandering the grounds of Nethernook Castle.
I am certain Mr Griffiths would have been keen to see the Fingering Hole but after my last experience down there I remained taciturn upon its existence.
The weather was somewhat showery but Mr Griffiths, ever prepared, drew a colourful rain shade from his handbag as we wandered beneath the yew. 
He laughed off a difficult moment when he stepped in a patch of ochreous mud which ruined his pastel coloured mules.
We returned to Knob End for tea and after enjoying a large cream puff Mr Griffiths returned to Manchesterford upon 'Princess.'
It has been a delightful weekend.
