No news.
A new craze has beset the Camp. It consists of a piece of polished wood at the edges of which numerals, the alphabet, months & the words Yes & No are placed. A port wine glass is placed upside down in the centre of the board & persons asking questions place a finger on the bottom of the glass which then moves and gives the answer.
Tried it tonight with Steve, Hiscock ((sic. probably Hircock)), Mrs Stevens ((possibly "Steve's" wife, M A Stevens - but why so formal?)) & McLin [?] ((possibly Girlie Macklin)) & myself. Only part successful. Tonight it told us that the Japs would leave by Oct 5th & that I would see Marj Dec.1946.
