It was a long day; I left home at half past nine in the morning, and didn't get back until nearly nine at night. It was worth it though, because the VE Day party was a great success. There was a good mixture of people of all ages, all joining in the singing and dancing. I played for about ninety minutes, then there were some French songs. I played for an hour afterwards to finish the afternoon.
One lady came over and gave me a bottle of drink and some chocolates for being the best-dressed man. I had to smile to myself, as everything I wore (except for socks and undies) had been bought in charity shops. The suit was three quid, the shoes cost the same, the suit and tie were a quid each. I'd become the height of chic for the princely sum of eight pounds! That was such a good afternoon.
