At 3.00 p.m., I watched another programme of the British production, “Department S”, which stars Peter “Jason King” Wyngarde, the American actor, Joel Fabiani and Rosemary Nicols. Produced in 1969 and 1970 the series centres upon the world of espionage.
The Swedish group, Abba, was seen to perform “Knowing Me, Knowing You” on the series, ‘Right On’. The tall, blonde Christine Conway presented this evening’s edition of “Country Road” from six o’clock.
Channel Seven’s news, which is read daily during the week, from half past six, by Roger Climpson, showed film from England of ‘Victor’s’ last moments. The giraffe, of fifteen years, died as he was being winched to his feet. It is believed that he had been performing his duty for the good of his species, with one of the females in his enclosure, when he did the splits.
By the time I had washed the greasy dishes and put out the garbage it was half past eight. A tired Tiki accompanied me to bed. She had fallen asleep on the floor, in front of “Columbo”.
