Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th February 1977

Today’s update from the diary my seven year old self wrote during the 1977 Festival of Black arts and culture in Lagos, Nigeria.

Monday 7th February 1977.

Mum played tennis. We went to the museum. We saw dancing by the stilt men and the masquerades. We saw them pouring bronze masks. I went to ballet then we went to the Brazil exhibition. It was not good.

Tuesday 8th February 1977.

We played hospital in the morning. We bandaged mum. We went to the beach and I went to Brownies.
