June 1974

While Bri was recovering in the hospital from hepatitis, Rog, Freddie and John went into the studio to record another new album at Trident Studios. They already had enough songs written. I visited Bri frequently, as did Rog and the boys.

During the month of June, Rog went to talk to Jena about her pregnancy. He said he will give all the assistance to the child, who will take over the child, if it is really his child, but he will stay with me, that we are dating and that in the future we will get married. Jena was revolted and threatened Roger too, saying we will not be together. Rog and I are not afraid, let's face all the obstacles to being together.

Meanwhile the boys are recording the songs. Rog, my beautiful boyfriend has already finished writing one song and is writing another. Finally I finished my college of English Language and British Literature. My graduation will be held in August. Rog congratulated me a lot.

- Congratulations for more this step, my love. I only wish you well, "he said, kissing me.

- Thank you my love - I smile - One of my dreams now is to write my book and be a successful writer.

"I confess, my love, that I'm not much of a fan of reading, but your books, I'll buy and have to read. You write very well, I'm sure that in the future will be a great writer, "said Rog kissing me in love.

Dating Bella is going really well, we're all in love.

Jena was possessed with rage, threatening me, saying that Bella and I will not be together and that she will take all possible from me, but, I'm not afraid.

During the month of June, Freddie, Deacy and I recorded the songs Tenement Funster, which was written and composed by me and Flick on the Wrist.

Bri is recovering very well and while he is in the hospital he has written song lyrics for the album and putting the composition together. Bri will be hospitalized by the end of July. Time is passing fast. We all agree that when Bri leaves the hospital, we will spend a weekend in Brighton, as we miss the seaside town. Finally, July nineteenth arrived. Twenty-seven year old birthday from Bri. As he is still in the hospital, Bella made him a birthday cake, we took bladders and salty ones as well. Everyone sang congratulations to Bri. His parents, Harold and Ruth were present and the doctor freed for a day that Bri would eat a piece of cake, with some salty foods and drink water. He did not release the soda.

Bri left the hospital on the twenty-fourth of July, still weak, but with a healthy appearance. Five days from now he will be recording again at the studios. In the absence of Bri, Mick Rock took photos of me with Freddie and Deacy, through the London streets, for the release of the band's third album. Twenty-sixth of July was my birthday.
