21st. This morning going to my father’s I met him, and so he and I went and drank our morning draught at the Samson in Paul’s Churchyard, and eat some gammon of bacon, etc., and then parted, having bought some green Say for curtains in my parlor. Home, and so to the Exchequer, where I met with my uncle Wight, and home with him to dinner, where among others (my aunt being out of town), Mr. Norbury and I did discourse of his wife’s house and land at Brampton, which I find too much for me to buy. Home, and in the afternoon to the office, and much pleased at night to see my house begin to be clean after all the dirt.
