Also, the diary writer by mistake left out a couple of pages and wrote into the week beginning 18th November the entries for the week beginning 11th November, then wrote into the week beginning 11th November the entries for the week beginning 18th November, correcting the dates but obviously not the countdown of days, the phases of the moon or the name of the Sunday. The result is that the missing dates consist of Thursday 7th to Sunday 10th November, and Monday 18th to Wednesday 20th November.] Thursday, 21 [corrected from 14] [318 - 47] Wilson wood. 47 rabbits 12 Pheasants.
