6 Sep 1945, Barbara Anslow's diary

Went to Stanley on lorry. Olive came for a quick visit.  I stayed overnight.  Camp seemed very changed. Empty hooch bottles stacked up in yard. Many people have changed billets ((due to vacances caused by internees going into town to work)).  There were even some camp additions.

Mum & Mabel had issues of bread, 3 tins milk, tin lambs' tongues, fresh butter, oats etc. - wallowing in food.

Mrs Large (Clifton's mother) gave me a dress - nice of her.

Mum, Mabel & I went to P.O. Club where men of 'Kempenfelt' ((HMS Kempenfelt, one of the ships that came in with the Fleet)) gave a cinema show - 'Shine on Harvest Moon' - our first films since December 1941 (apart from a short Jap propaganda one in 1942). ((The show was held in the Central Recreation Club, also called the Prisoner Officers' Club, in Stanley.))

Slept on Olive's camp bed.
