We went swimming - including Mum, her first attempt in Stanley, with  a roll-on suspender belt underneath costume.  So gorgeous, able to wallow in that lovely warm water.   ((no hot water to wash ourselves or clothes in the Blocks)).

Talking about writing to Golly Anslow ((Francis Joseph, son of F.P. Anslow who worked in the hospital office, Golly often came to talk to his Dad as they weren't billeted together.  Little did I think then he and I would be married 6 years later.))

Today we again had services in Thode’s room. It being Ziegler’s 20th anniversary, she treated us all to beer.
