24th Sept. 1940.

A cold day, but mild in shelter & warm in sunny intervals, after rain at night:  afternoon spoiled by shower at 3 p.m., just as we reached head of reservoir:  almost sunless after this shower with cold NW wind blowing up valley.

At 6 p.m. a jam which had formed towards Dublin reached Bohernabreena & we drove home on flooded roads & through heavy rain.

Later drove to Amiens St. to meet Daisy & George, the latter just out of Lisburn Fern hospital where he had been shut up with scarlateria for five weeks.
