Sat, 9 Oct 1943
Today I received two parcels from town, one from Lo Fung I and his son Young Lo containing 4lb sweet potatoes, some dried onions and a small packet of curry powder and one from the Mie Lee Ironworks containing 1 tin corned mutton, 2 tins yellow beans and 1 tin T.S.R. treacle, all of which is jolly welcome to our mess. We intend having a stew tomorrow with the mutton, potatoes and onions and curry.
D.B.B. and I still go to J.Fs' on Saturday nights and have our chin wag together. The weather is very good and now much cooler.
Two of the men put in prison have now been released, Dr Talbot and Streatfield of the Bank, but they wont talk, having been threatened not to divulge anything.
