    Schönes tag. Ich musik schrieb. Deutche stonde n.m. Mit Steve abend.

    ((Jill's translation:

    Beautiful day. I wrote music. German lesson in the afternoon. With Steve in the evening.

    ))

    All out offensive everywhere & more repat rumours. There is a feeling in the air that something or other is to take place shortly. Heaven grant that the “feeling” is justified.
