Friday
The weather still fine, hot and
summery, a wonderful spring. A little
cloud came up this afternoon.
All black-out restrictions are to be lifted next week, except for a 10
mile belt round the coast, where lights might help submarines to take a bearing
or to shell a town. (There is a rumour
going round that a sub: shelled Liverpool
recently). In “event of a raid” lights
are to be extinguished, but as gas-lamps can't be turned off, (as we know full
well here after last month’s experience) there seems little point in such an
order.
Cooler towards the evening and a
heavy shower at 7, then about 10.30 a tremendous thunderstorm for an hour and a
half. Spent the time talking to Dorothy
Brewer about my “Fox One” manuscript. She seemed to
like it and thought it had a good chance for publication.
