Abstract
15 Augt 1945 Got to West Hackhurst at tea-time. Morgan had put out flags dating from the Diamond Jubilee, as this was supposed to be a day celebrating peace. There were printed heads of Queen Victoria in a decorative crimson border, and a figure of Britannia with a lion, quite decorative. Faint poppings of fireworks from the village.
1945 diary entries and memo of August 1960 (William Plomer Papers, Durham University Library) not previously published; 1951 and 1969 diary entries from Electric Delights, ed. Rupert Hart-Davis (London: Cape, 1978) pp. 223–4.
