Sat, 15 Aug 1942
Sugar 5/- per lb. Soap 6/- per bar. Condensed milk £1.0.0. per tin.
No news.
Four people’s estimation of duration of internment: 2yrs, 6 to 12mths, 2mths & one who is certain of repatriation. ((They would remain interned for another three years.))
1lb sugar, ½ bar of washing soap & 3 small boxes of inferior matches cost me the equivalent of 8/6d. today.
