Artefact
Geoffrey Griffiths was stopped in the street by a police officer "a Robert" asking for his identification card on the way to work. In WW2, everyone had to carry an ID card - it proved who you were and allowed people to be identified if they were injured or killed in attacks. It also seems to be used to just keep tabs on travel agents going about their business.
The message is interrupted when Geoffrey's fellow fire watcher comes to his door.
