Now that I've organised dinner, I'm back to an ongoing task.
My late father-in-law kept a diary in 1940 (when we was 20) and I have transcribed it and Tweet an entry every day.

We only have the one year, but his brother's diaries from 1935 have survived, and his family have lent me them, so I can do something similar. I'm now on February 1938 and as well as notes about the weather and farm work, there are these two entries.
Tuesday 22nd February
Cat went with chick.
Wednesday 23rd February
Cat gone with 2 chicks.
Shot cat.

Lovely and sunny here so far today, ground white with frost though first thing.
Bags all packed and ready for the off to Glasgow ready for our flight out in the morning, bit of lunch first then another quick tidy round.
Sunshine here we come (hopefully) 
Play nice everyone while we are away and above all stay safe.

The reason is they chose to fit rear disks that are a bit too small for the work they have to do; they then wear at a rather excessive rate. Not a lot you can do about it and it's nothing to do with your driving. Beware of the garage also wanting to change the disks. In most cases for the first change it is not necessary but they may try it on.
