The young child is very fine! He discovered a casket of old jewellery work in a cupboard. There are brooches without a clasp or with a stone missing. There are necklaces and bracelets. The necklace made of pearls has a bent clasp. There are a lot of pendants without chains and there are chains with broken links. There are five watches - and they are not working! There are no real diamonds and all the silver is tarnished (including a mystery spoon)! He finished three jigsaw puzzles in his finery (49 pieces each puzzle).

Piw o an persons ma? There are many proverbs in my little book. I can't understand all of them! I could translate some sayings word for word, but they are still nonsense for me. (And I can't find a translation for some words.) Some mention names of women or men (unknown to me). Who were these people? "All abroad, like Mary Miles." "Oll a-les, pecar'a Mary Miles." "All on one side, like Smoothy's wedding." "Oll war ü dn trenewen, pecar'a demedhyans Smoothy." "Always head and chief, like Jimmy Eellis 'mong the cats."

Or perhaps I ought to write 'my world is blue'! I have two books with blue covers and lots of blue-wrapped chocolate. I shall read the books and eat the chocolate with great pleasure. The books are both written by women, one in 1811 and the other in 2023. There are troubled young people in them. Will there be happy endings?
