Dec 26 (Tue)
Boxing Day. Did hardly anything worthwhile today. Dad and mum nearly had a row (mum's still upset) over dad coming in late at dinnertime. The Beatles were on the telly (Help!) So were the Goons for Christmas. Got everything I wanted. Started revision more or less. Fel depressed. Ju's coming round tomorrow.
Dec 27th
Ju came for dinner, we played records (I did say that Rob had lent me his record-player, didn't I?). What did we do? Can't remember. Oh, we played cards with Norma and I read some of the books that Norma got me for Christmas (Gormenghast Trilogy). Been watching Verdi's opera of Macbeth on TV. Hopeless. Ugh.
Dec 28th
Did nothing except reading this morning. After dinner went up town with Ju. Saw Cn and made arrangements about party tomorrow night. She's coming. Bought nail polish remover. Been at Ju's house until 11.30 helping her to alter one of her mum's old dresses. Nice.
Dec 29th (Fri)
Dave's party. Pretty good. We were late - Ju wanted this dress doing. Rob's going to get too serious isn't he? Cn came too. On the way home I collapsed. Like I was fainting. Awful. I wasn't drunk.
Dec 30th
Gosh, it's nearly the end of the year again!! Mocks soon and then the real thing. Done nothing all day. Slept at Ju's last night. Went to Brin's party. He lives up my street. I'm very tired. I think it is that that caused the fainting.
Dec 31st
Goodbye 1972. It's not a very happy goodbye, but who expected it to be? Ireland and Vietnam* still go on, as do many other horrible things. Just been to a party at Steve's (Rob's friend). Rob came home with me to let in the New Year.
*Commentary
Dec 31st - I made an additional note afterwards "Vietnam - peace! 23.1.73"
