Mon, 8 Oct 1945
Radio news said the p.o.ws liberated who arrived in the s.s.Corfu at Southampton were giving a roaring welcome and taken into camp, given roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, and are going to their homes today. 600 more are arriving at Liverpool, so impatient for it to be us.
This afternoon we are in sight of the island of Socotra, off Somaliland.
