August 11

11 Saturday (224-142)
Half Quarter Day
S.R. 5.39. S.S. 8.30

We got up at 6 AM. Had breakfast 645. Train left 7:45. Arrived Derby safely. There Iris dropped pin in the rails and a porter got it out for her. We parted with Miss Hunt. The train to London was crowded. Arrived Saint Pancras 11:45 AM. Lost luggage and found it, got to Paddington in 1/4 hour. Bought tickets and got 12:05 PM train. Lost luggage again.
Not enough lunch. Had it at 8:30 PM. Ravenously hungry. Nothing since 7 AM. Change at Plymouth and Portsmouth. Arrived Newquay 10 PM. Luggage not arrived. Went to Lerryn House, sleeping out! Daddy in the room with gas light and ours in separate house nearby as bad. Went to Trelawney. Phoned, no room in Newquay. Returned Lerryn House. Had supper. Went back to the station. Sent telegram. Returned to our rooms and slept well.
