Wed, 9 Dec 1942
Remainder of (Red Cross) parcels given today = 3 between 4 persons - just right for us. Our meat tins were mainly curry. Nestles milk is wonderful again; one marmalade pudding and two apple puds. Glorious meat galantine, and choc.
Dorothy Holloway away from work, she said I could have her rations, that meant a nice big piece of roast meat for Mum, and a double dose of gravy and sweet potato for me.
Mr Kelly (Fred) gave Mabel a tin of biscuits.
Played bridge.
In morning, orders for the men to go to gaol, but now order rescinded, and no blackout.
