Friday 17 April:


A slightly strange day… it rained for a start (and was damp and grey all day).
I continued putting together some family history stuff (for emailing to the girls in due… for what it’s worth). I think I’ve scribbled about five pages on the Broadways thus far (none of it startling in any way) and I’ve put together a couple of pages of Broadway and Walker photographs from over the years. I’ve now made a tentative start on writing up the ‘Walker stuff’.
All this made me want to check out some family stuff for myself again (eg. I’m very unknowledgeable about Rose’s side of the family and there’s still lots that I don’t understand about the Walker side – specifically why Frank actually adopted his ‘Walker’ name (it continues to be a bit of a mystery, I’m afraid). Anyway, I’ve now signed up for a month’s Ancestry.co. membership… to concentrate the mind, as it were! I then spent three hours going round in circles trying to solve the Walker mystery… and completely failed to do so.
Watched Inspector Montalbano after supper…
No walking today.
