Diary entry - 26th October 1973

B's building a rickety wall outside my door from the bricks he broke down. Doesn't look save to me. Quick! the mayor comes to take us to the Supermarche! near Albi - not a Hypermarket but like Tesco's and just as expensive as Cordes. Spend over £6 between us on supplies oil, sugar and other items. Could have got some nice green wellies but not my size on show. Into Albi after which proved to be a bore, watching Mr. Pratt nearly getting run over was quite amusing I suppose. The Pratt's TV had blown up so they had taken it to the shop - some records there too, cheap ones too by French standards.
