EASTER SUNDAY.

Church in am. 

Went to see Mrs de Vleeschouwer re dresses for her daughters Andree (8) and Denise (3) for show.

((This family, Dutch, had managed to bring many clothes into camp. Mrs de V also lent dresses to other fairies.))  Mrs gave me some sweets.

Benediction in afternoon, then went to see Mrs Maitland in bungalow to get some flowers, then sat in garden and chatted with her.  She told me about Lourdes.

We (Olive and I) had pasty from hospital (as a special concession) and rest of food from Married Quarters, quite a lot of it. Rissoles and pasty. Opened tin of bacon as well.

Eileen Grant came in evening and put my hair in curlers ((for Annie and R.N. Rennie's wedding next day.))
