Now into the fourth year of the war and on Friday the 8th the anniversary the lads came over and gave us a good demonstration and gave the Japs here a jolly fright. It is a grand sight to see our lads doing their stuff and gives us courage.
The weather is very raw and cold, not at all like Decembers usual weather, however as Christmas approaches it will probably get warmer. I'm keeping fine and working on my own job and trying to be as merry and bright as possible under the circumstances. The poor quality of the food is the great drawback and the lack of meat and its juices is the thing which affects us most. However we always live in hope.
