Sun, 25 Oct 1942

Great excitement, many planes about, very high.  Some people saw ack-ack puffs later (Olive did). I thought I heard bangs too - grand if so, though it's probably goodbye to our Red Cross parcels.

Mr G. Buchanan died suddenly.  On Bowling Green.  I went to Mr Carrie (W.J.) about funeral arrangements.  Mr Puckle ((Director of Air Raid Precautions, my boss)) lives there too.
