April 5th 1940

After a record week's flying we had decided to pack up on time at 16.00 hrs on Friday so that everybody could get away for the week-end as it was the squadron's week-end off. At 14.15 we hear a pupil has forced landed at St. Eval through bad weather. Hendy and I set off to bring them back. Got there at 16.25 to find the birds had flown! Got home again just before 18.00 hrs! Went to the theatre in Oxford that night to a revue, with Hendy and one of the Army Officers - Robinson. Spent the week-end off making a rabbit hutch!
