1950s Excerpts From a Physics Student's Extensive 1950 Diary (Part 57) - Reflections
Hey all! Sorry for the long wait in between posts, but life has a way of keeping one busy!
Speaking of, in today's entries we see William reflect on his current relationship with Nan and have a great think about life in general on Aug. 16th that I really enjoyed. Also, we saw William up to his usual shenanigans of tennis, swimming, and much more mentioned throughout!
Again, a picture of William is included at the end of the slideshow, a transcript is in the comments, and, for any new readers, anything in italics is me adding onto or commenting on William's writing
Thanks for all the support on this project!

It was 50 Years Ago
This photo was taken 50 years ago and adorns my memoir book on amazon. Anyway this photo:-
My MK1 Cortina in the background was confiscated by the Police in Taupo, New Zealand the night before.Me and my mate had been imbibing and about midnight we cruised around to the Burger Bar. Then food in hand i drove down Tongariro St the main street. A pack of tourists were crossing the road, i swung the steering wheel side to side and well, tourists scattered in fear. Unbeknown to me a Police Officer had seen it all and pulled me over.The cops took away my car as it was to be inspected for concealing contraband somewhere?.Anyway i picked it up in the morning and lo and behold, the cops missed a joint in the ashtray, probably as brown tobacco was hiding the green stuff inside. And i drove off blowing smoke from the doobie in the direction of the police station......good times and all in my book on amazon.
