I see I didn't write yesterday. I was up at the house today - looters had been in but they couldn't get into the hot room - though there were marks on the door that they had tried to get in. They got into my den however though I had one door locked - the other onto the verandah was blown in by the explosion - I had nailed it up but they soon burst it open. They took a few things - very little - that I had left in my dressing table drawers - then in my desk - the only thing I missed, and I'm sorry for, is my desk Ronson lighter that Win gave me - what was the [?pony] on that occasion - I forget. Shipmaster I think. Well we can just hope on. Cheerio Darling. B
