It's beautiful outside and I want to be out there but I don't know what to do. All the productive things are indoor things. Outdoor things will invariably end up with me spending lots of money in town (which I already did in terms of lunch).

I am very tempted to take 'I Capture the Castle' to the park and see if I can't finish it before it gets cold/dark. Picked it up at a charity store: between seeing the televised version and reading 101 Dalmations (same author) I have really high hopes for it.

I want woods. I want to go and read in some woods. On a hill. I want to go for a walk up Chinthurst Hill. Since it's four hours away by train, though, I'll guess I'll have to make do without.

there are woods in york! walk past the golf course at fulford and keep going. Wheldrake wood is particularly nice. I can't suggest any hills though, cos there aren't any.

I remember reading another book by Dodie Smith: The Midnight Kittens. It was about two orphan siblings staying with their grandmother and meeting some squatters, a very old woman, and yes, some kittens that appeared at midnight. I don't remember how all these elements fitted together, if they did.
