post some letters and post
cards, but I had no stamps.
So I went to the Post Office,
and asked the clerk to give
me three penny stamps, two
twopence halfpenny ones, and
a halfpenny one. He gave me
the stamps, and I paid for them.
One of the letters I had to
register, because it contained
some money. The clerk gave
me a receipt for it.
While at the Post Office, I
sent a wire (wired) to a friend,
saying I should be very
pleased to accept his kind
invitation to spend the week-end
with him (in the country). It
will make a nice change (break).
The change will do me good
(buck me up), as I have been
rather (a bit) run down (out of
sorts) lately.
I also phoned to another
friend asking him to go with
me to the Lyric Theatre
tonight, to see the new piece
(play) they have on there. I
booked seats a week ago.
They say it is awfully good
(amusing). It is very well
staged. They have some of
our best actors and actresses
there. You ought to see it.
Everybody says it is a great
success.
