Letters, diaries and photographs from World War II

Friday 25th May 1945

We get to Grantham at 4am and to Nottingham at 7am. Had breakfast then compose and papers. Take 10.15 to London and get to Janie’s parents’ house at 2pm. Ring Janie in the evening and make arrangements etc. After three periods of six nights I sleep in Janie’s parents’ house, the last time I was here was before going overseas.
