All concerts, gatherings etc. off for a week - such a disappointment. Maybe church services can be held out of doors.

The Woods twins brought us jam and grape fruit juice ysterday.

Mum sold hot water bottle for 5 Yen.

Collected $20 for Mum and $20 for Mabel from the Relief Fund.  ((I have no recollection of what that was!))

Some people got cakes today from men in Argyle St. Camp. Loads more (private) parcels came in today.

To  R.C. nativity play rehearsal, Olive ((as Virgin Mary)) looked all right, choir ragged.
