Am just falling in with the other pals arrangements & taking as much rest as possible. We expect to have a very, very busy time when we return, so must feel fit for work.

Went to bed early Friday-night after a glorious, hot bath - something we have not had since we left England. Oh, and a lovely clean bed with white sheets. Had a great dinner also. Did not waken until 8.30 a.m. Went to the Base that morn (Sat) to report to Miss Conyers & get some pay, had a rather tiring morning running around, saw several people I know & they all seemed pleased to see me. Did a little necessary shopping, had dinner, then returned to Base & at last saw Miss Conyers. She was delighted to see us & all looking so well. We got the pretty little Brooch send out to us by "The Aust People".
