2 Dec: Sunday (5.30 pm)

    Got up fairly late. Telephoned to Leeds to find out train times. Leaves at 9.50 pm tonight. Just arrived back from visit to Grandma’s who opened a bottle of port for the occasion. She slipped 5/- into a bag of sweets without my knowing. Harold, Vera & Leslie have just arrived to offer Pa a nights lodging because his bike has broken down.
