Went to Shell house, to see about U.S. visa, after to Australia House. Got 2 letters, posted key of trunk to Bella, also parcel for Bill. Had lunch with Mrs Cantor & Jack S – came home at 1.30 to do some ironing. Mrs C came back about 4 – sat in my room, and did some sewing. Had my medicine made up again for the trip, everything fixed up now for trip. Had my hat blackened up for 2/6. Mrs C brought me up some brandy & bisc for supper at 10.30.
