Click on number 11. Just wondering if any of you cleaver lads could decipher this, would love to know what he had written on the 20th.

I did try but its beyond me. Is there a copy of the original. It's not easy to read it this way.

The text is transcribed in 'Whom the Gods Love' if only I hadn't sold my copy to pay for a divorce!
