3rd February 1944

Thursday
Have not been to bed since Sunday, yet feel no ill-effects.  Brilliant morning, and quite warm.  Crimson clouds at sunrise, and American bombers going out.  Got towed in behind a lorry, so got in early for once.

Clouds blowing over all day, but the sky cleared tonight after a wild tempestuous sunset.  Came back by Langham Mill because I had no lights, and waded through the ford under the shining moon.  A raid at half past 8, but not much gunfire.  A few planes went over at a great height, and all-clear came faintly on the wind at 9.30. 

Still writing, and again no bed tonight.
