Mrs 'X' wanting the sink removed from our kitchen; committee being asked about it tonight, we sent in a protest - almost all the block.

Miss Ellis ((Leontine))  - from St. Theresa's - died this morning.

So tired and sunburnt, afternoon off, spent it at the beach.  Olive started to have a week's holiday, Norah Witchell taking her place for the time being. ((Post war Norah Married HK policeman Stutchbury. She was murdered in Malaya during the troubles there.))
