Up at 6 A.M baggage checked by the Japs at 8.30A.M spent morning saying goodbye -1.15pm all on platform all patients who could walk & all staff present. We piled into 2 buses – staff sang Auld Lang Syne – we all felt awful. Stopped at Queens Pier – all out. Paraded in formed 4 & waiting boiling sun till we all felt faint, for people from St Theresa’s. They arrived – all looking terribly pale – we couldn’t speak to them. Colonel Tokunaga arrived (to our surprise) All called to attention (more surprise) Long speech – praising our work! (your stay will not be short) Out to Stanley in 2 buses. All to collect in hall & small bundles checked. Heavy bags arrive and we stand for over 3 hours beside our bags until they are again examined. Up to our new quarters. 2 room with Rollin & Davies – can’t think when I felt more like weeping. Were given large pas??? & just fell into bed. Terrible night – mice & cockroaches – all sleeping on floor.
