Friday 20 July 1660

We sat at the office this morning, Sir W. Batten and Mr. Pett being upon a survey to Chatham.  This morning I sent my wife to my father's and he is to give me 5l. worth of pewter.  After we rose at the office, I went to my father's, where my Uncle Fenner and all his crew and Captain Holland and his wife and my wife were at dinner at a venison pasty of the venison that I did give my mother the other day.  I did this time show so much coldness to W. Joyce that I believe all the table took notice of it.  After that to Westminster about my Lord's business and so home, my Lord having not been well these two or three days, and I hear that Mr. Barnwell at Hinchinbroke is fallen sick again.  Home and to bed.
