23rd March 1940

My Father’s Birthday, 68 years old. Still keeping as well as he can, and seems to take a bright interest in things. Gave him the usual tobacco, etc. and a silly little box of fancy matches. He knew more or less what was coming, but was just as quietly satisfied as always, dear old man. I do so hope he can see this war out.
