The Diary in July
Wynne wrote nothing for June.
July affords some happier occupations alongside the usual hospital work.
July 8th – 12th
Air raids on London worry Wynne, but the weather means gardening can continue. She inspects a neighbour’s kitchen garden. Food is scarce, and growing it has become very important.
July 13th – 20th
Terrible rain, the death at the front of a very old friend, and another attack of depression
July 21st – 24th
Wynne travels to Bristol to spend the weekend with her young admirer who is in training there. She enjoys the Hippodrome and walking on the Downs, but finds the Cathedral acoustic “vile”.
July 25th – 31st
Wynne travels to Norwich where her husband is on the staff of the Home Defence. She meets the CO Sir Bruce Hamilton.
