20th August
Not much doing for us today. I did go to a lecture by Evon entitled "Why did Japan go to war with the USA" In case you don't know according to Evon it was because the US supplied oil and other supplies to them and these had been cut off as sanctions because of Japan's invasions of other countries. They knew that the USA was building up their navy and they thought that if they had any chance of beating them they had better destroy their navy a lot of which was in Pearl Harbour. In the afternoon Betty went with Bev & Ian to see the movie As Good As It Gets. I have 2 books & the Herald Sun on the go so I was happy to stay in the cabin and read. In the theatre tonight was Instrumentalist Bob Howe with the Orchestra. He played the guitar and harmonic with music from lots of eras. He was excellent.
