HMT Dunera dropped us off at Steamer Point and continued to Malaya with a Scottish battalion on their way to deal with the emergency there. Newly arrived families were allocated a bungalow in one of two terraces at the north end of the Patch, being given a house when one became available. With bamboo thatching and a shuttered verandah the bungalows were quite cool to live in. You lucky folk who went to Aden later will remember them as squadron offices; as far as I can see from Google, they are still standing.
