entry picture

 

ATTENTION  – forty visitors from Rosemundy will arrive at 4 o’clock!!

One of the harbour model display lights is flickering

I sold a copy of Exploring Cornwall Underwater but it was not priced

I charged £3.50 hope that was alright

 

Graham – the clock is still not chiming – maybe it’s been overwound?

THE ALFRED RICKARD MEMORIAL PLAQUE HAS

BROKEN AWAY FROM THE WALL!

I emptied the dehumidifiers

Visitors 21

 

PLEASE DO NOT PUT ANY FOOD, INCLUDING BANANA SKINS,

IN THE MUSEUM BIN. IT IS ONLY MEANT FOR MUSEUM REFUSE

AND SOMEONE HAS TO TAKE IT HOME!!!

 

Hocking clock STILL not going

And the Letcher clock struck 12 at 2 o’clock

Strip lighting left ON all night in book corner!

A very quiet day – visitors must have gone to Helston

 

A swarm of bees has settled in the privet hedge

I will inform the Parish Council

Ann here – power went off when she turned on the computer

Both dehumidifiers emptied

Visitors 13

I really like the snapshot views of the goings on in this quaint little museum!

Just as marvellous as the previous one. You're mining a rich vein of material here, Ann

This is probably proving the law of diminishing returns - but such fun to do :) I have quoted verbatim from 2010 diary, so did not edit as such. Seemed to go against the grain. I'm afraid there may be one last one!

I still love the idea, but I don't think this is quite as good as the first one. IMO, taking out small verbs and pronouns would help tighten it up - jottings instead of sentences - to press forward with more energy.

This brought a smile. Things are sure to pick up as the weather improves, but in the meantime what an opportunity to WRITE

More news from nowhere! Again, everything is from the museum diary. As I browse through it, there seems to be a sense of mounting hysteria!
