C nar heute abend etwas kalt, aber ich bin vielleicht fehlerhaft. [..?this evening was cold ? but perhaps I am ?] Seems like the evening is mucked up. H.K. around till 10pm ∴ aber nicht so gut [but not so good] ((Translation notes from Jill Fell: I think it should read: "C (or G) war heute Abend etwas kalt, aber ich bin vielleicht fehlerhaft." so "C (or G) was rather cold this evening, but perhaps I am mistaken." "Fehlerhaft" is invented but a good try!))
