Tue, 13 Apr 1943
Grayburn and Streatfield are moved again.
This time they're taken by car to Stanley Prison where they're held in much improved conditions. Each has a cell to himself and exercise periods and baths are provided.
Their arrival is recorded in the diary of George Wright-Nooth:
Grayburn brought to Stanley chained to Streatfield....
It seems from Streatfield's account that they were both roped up, but not to each other.
