The Finland sailed for Lisbon again in July, arriving on 26 July. Scott-Ford again met up with the Germans, receiving another 500 Escudos for expenses (again signing a receipt) although he had been unable to get the books which they had requested. The Germans threatened to give the receipts to the British consulate. Scott-Ford did give details of the convoy he had sailed in and its protection, the location of an aircraft factory, and the training of troops for an invasion of Europe. At the end of the meeting he was told to keep a record of the movement and speed of the convoy and given another 100 Escudos. Another meeting was arranged but Scott-Ford was unable to keep it as the Finland sailed for Manchester.
