Jap order is that all dry reserves of rice to be handed in to Indian Quarters Quartermaster by tomorrow morning, under threat of dire penalties.

Pasties.

Feeling better now, but not perfect.

Bridge, Peg and I played Tacchi and Goldenberg in afternoon, went down 36. ((Beryl Goldenberg was a good friend of mine, though 5 years younger than me. However I think it more likely that the Goldenberg I played bridge was more likely her father William, as I think I Wd have put 'Beryl' rather than Goldenberg  in  diary.    Also, Clifford John Tacchi (shown on Greg Leck's list as an engineer in Public Works Dept, Waterworks) was 65, the same age as Beryl's father, so a more likely partner  for him.))
