Starting to feel nauseous—my head pounding. [SS suffered from severe migraines until she was in her mid-thirties.] Walked left up Tottenham Court Road; saw a cinema featuring La Romana and Riso amaro and went in. Saw most of the first and all of the second. Bought a lousy vanilla ice between the films.

Feeling worse when I came out at 6:00. Caught a bus (#1) back to hotel, got undressed + went to bed. Slept until 9:30. Still in bed, I turned on the Third Programme + listened to the latter 2/3 of a new English translation of Gide’s play of [his novel] Les Caves du Vatican. That was over by 10:45, + now my migraine was in full career. I should have taken something earlier, but somehow shrank from confirming it. One of the worst—within the next three hours I took 5 of the prescription + 3 codeine tablets, before getting any relief.
