Rumour that repatriation is in the air again - in Chinese newspapers - now that the menace of German action is no longer present, since that apparently was the fly in the ointment before - the Germans wouldn't guarantee us a safe passage.

Mass offered in thanksgiving for Peace in Europe.

Went to Doreen and gave her shorthand lesson, then called on Asletts.  Betty is home again ((from hospital presumably)).  We talked evacuation 1940, then walked round by the lovely rocks and sat by Indian Quarters – glorious day.

Catholic Action meeting, Miss D. Pepperell gave a talk on Hong Kong poverty.
