Bright & warmer pm.

Party to town for charcoal.

Finished Jap oven.

2 A/r alarms. US planes around & 1 slowly flew over this area, low & unmolested.

Saucepan for S.H. & made myself a trowel.

Paper had no war news whatever. German High Command changed Ronstadt out, Kesselring in & Jap boasting re re-taking what they have lost. Spain declines to carry on looking after Jap interests in Europe.
