Pauline's birthday (she was Tony's fiance in Australia) so Tony & I celebrated by going to Prince's Cafe and having coffee and 3 hotcakes each - wonderful!
Queen's Road was made into a kind of market. Shops weren't open, but stalls lined the road and you could buy almost anything ((if you had money)).
Amah came twice, with most of our best clothes, and Olive's trousseau finery, which I took to her in Gloucester Hotel.
Tommy Maycock and Mr Himsworth took clothes to Mum at Queen Mary Hospital.
