Concert at St Stephens.  Wasn't much.  First we had to have a picture show by our hosts  Singapore has apparently surrendered.  ((Film show was supposed to be in celebration, mainly a kind of Jap documentary.  A few shots of bottles of beer going along the assemby line - there were nostalgic cheers from the men in the audience at the sight.))

Mum got peas in the canteen.
