Tue, 3 Nov 1942
Parcel rumours much in the air - that there are only 900 of them, only bully beef and clothes.
We have been ordered to black out tonight. Rumour has it that the Allies will be bombing heavily after today, and Chinese have been warned to keep clear of militry objectives. Worried a little for ourselves and the boys at Shamshuipo, as we aren't lit up at night.
Mabel still in hospital, very bored. I don't think she's looking quite so well either.
Future uncertain - will we be retaken by Allies, then bombed and interned again?
Played bridge in evening.
European news still supposed to be good.
