The Diary in November
Air raids, a shell-shocked friend, and a brother who is finally invalided home.
November 1st – 5th
Air raids are now a matter of routine…and the full moon makes them more likely. A dull month, but gardening continues, helped by the arrival of her husband.
November 6th – 12th
A friend suffers shell shock, her husband has to go back, and the chores continue. She entertains the wounded, and comments on the collapse of class distinctions.
November 13th – 17th
Her brother is finally safe home in England. Wynne rushes up to London to be with him.
November 18th – 22nd
Final days in London take in “Yellow Ticket” and “Samson and Delilah” before Wynne returns to Somerset. She ends her diary on 22nd with nothing further to say.
