6th May 1941

night not so bad sirens at 10.30 and about nine bombs dropped on Honiton, but planes roared or whined as they limped home till almost dawn, I dozed for a little while and woke at the sound of all clear. Left Marion asleep but noise made her restless. One longs for the light of day and wonders if one will ever see it again. This morning Royal Drawing Society sent results of 1941 Children's Exhibition and Marion was again First class commended.
