What did Millie put on the mantle as she left?


As Millie is leaving the mansion for the last time, she puts some sort of card up on the mantle. I could only make out the word "Australia" on it. Did that mean she had decided to not go to Australia?

A friend who doesn't frequent these (very useful) boards asked me the same question. I assumed it was a note to Churchill saying she wasn't going to leave England. That she planned on making a life of her OWN there.

Thinking about it now I I think it may have been a Dear John letter to her finance.

She wasn't very enthusiastic from the start about going to Australia or giving up her job to be a housewife in another country. She would have been totally dependent on someone and without the finances to return to England if it didn't work out.

I don't know everything. Neither does anyone else
