4. [Monday crossed out}. Tuesday 2nd Dec. I was very dashing last night, & went to the camp Cinema - the first time for at least two months. The film was "Vessel of Wrath", with Charles Laughton & Elsa Lanchester. The acting of the two of them in it was excellent, but the film was not too good - & the screen & the sound are very poor. I also had a night out on Friday, with Ben & Salamon, the idea was to go to Tel-Aviv & go around a few places, but after only two miles in the car I had made up my mind that I was going to be bored & I managed to over persuade the other two - & so we switched off our road & went to the Garrison Cinema at Sarafand & saw Ginger Rogers in a very bad film called "5th Avenue Girl." Afterwards we had a couple of drinks in the cinema bar & then were quite unable to get hold of a car or taxi to take us home. And it was only after walking four of the ten miles back, that we were lucky enough to stop a passing car.

How wonderful to go out with you again, my own darling - & know beforehand that wherever we go, it is going to be a lovely time. Having a bath together & changing together - & going out together - & coming home together - & going to bed together.
