Primary tabs
The Americans have gone, 30th June.
Went to Dr Kirk today and he has prescribed palm oil for 'K' ((camp medical name for lack of periods, which affected most of us women)).
Tales that the notice about civilian foreign nationals doesn't apply to us, that Eden is still talking repatriation, and that we are in a very bad way in Egypt.
My weight now about 114 lbs, Olive still gaining, Mum losing a little.
We haven't got our $75parcels yet.
No relief in our room though more accommodation is available now American Quarters are vacant.
Started 'Holly' story.
Some $75 parcels are in - not ours.
