2nd February 1943

Tuesday

Up at 7.  Heavy rain and high wind, but some signs that the sky was clearing.  Cycled in, got rather wet.  Clear blue sky by 10 o’clock. 

Lovely light evening – hardly dark at 7 o’clock.  Went home, fed Bob, and then round by way of Dedham to tell the Sissons about Poulter.  They were very disturbed, and think that the future looks very bad for him.  He came up into the office this afternoon, very bright and cheerful.  Hull has not been seen today.
