20th January 1941

Committee meeting of the War Agricultural Executive at Birch Hall. Went very well. I made no mistakes. Lasted from 9.45 until almost 1.30. ... Had lunch with Capt. Folkard. Working late this afternoon, getting out the minutes. Mother went to Aunt Julia’s funeral at Ipswich, travelling by a hired car (one belonging to young Tweed, the conscientious objector) at a total charge of 18/-, which I think is very cheap indeed.

Terrible weather today, rain, sleet and snow, and a bitter wind. To Rose for supper.
