Tea and dinner with F/Lt Parker at Mead House. Went to the Three Bells for beers between. Two Paratroop officer patients from our neighbor hospital asked about a pub, and as I didn't think any were open I sent them to the Red Cross to wait until 8:00. John and I found the Bells so I rushed up the street and rescued them from the Red Cross cokes and brought them to the Bells. Very grateful - beers all around. A Welshman, an Irishman (RAF) found us. Back to the club here at 9:00 and celebrated Capt Haugun's new commission with cokes while John waited in the bar. He decided he won't see me often since smooches are out, heh-heh! Called J. from the mess and found him low in mind, but exciting as usual. Resisted the urge to walk 30 yards to see him.
