18th April 1941

Raid free night. One is always so astonished to get awake in the morning! Ann Camp our evacuee, just had a letter from her sister in London. She wrote blitz was terrible, lasted 9 hours non stop, but London is carrying on, she adds and I am just off to work as usual. Last night went to great trouble trying to get the dining room table in to Marion's room to put over her bed to protect her. Unfortunately it would not go and to Marion's great merriment, we got stuck with it in her doorway so had to take it back.
