'Blessing of the Throats' today after Mass.

Japs are asking for information re safe deposit boxes in HK & Shanghai Bank.

Connie Van Der Lely ((Annie's elder sister)) and I went to play bridge and monopoly at the Bartons - George Davitt (Police) and Dick Cloake there too; nice, and lots to eat.

Rumour that motor torpedo boats are around.

Russians 50 miles from Berlin.

We're not getting back-rice after all.
