"This is the 24th week in the Port of London.
I went out and bought a 5d of baked monkey nuts and a bar of chocolate also a bottle of American Cream Soda: it wasn't a bit like the pre-war sodas for it tasted like soda-water and lemonade mixed.
I went to Watts and bought 1 d of ginger biscuits with Rugg.
Before this I had a game of football with Robert and some more boys . We had some thunder at tea time.
Weather: - Thunder. No rain. Cold. Moderate wind. Showery."
