11 Jul 1942, Barbara Anslow's diary

Dance at St Stephens tonight, Mum, Mabel and I went with Tony.  Cabaret too:  June Winkelman did a tap dance, a fellow played banjo, and Azalea Reynolds did a dance - very graceful.  The band was topping too. R.J. (Dick) Cloake – South China Morning Post reporter – danced with me, and talked about writing.

Got on well with story.  ((a lot of the paper provided by Dorothy Holloway, who had brought a pack of lined blue fooscap into camp; I wrote originally in shorthand, then typed on the backs of old medical sheets from the records we had to make in the hospital for the Japanese.))
