night & again to-day. Cold winds. No parade at 6-30 a.m. Walking about in mud & rain very unpleasant. At 2 p.m. I take a party to the Quartermaster of about 50 men for equipment & this takes up all afternoon. Rain clears off at night & turns freezingly cold. After a brisk walk to canteen, bed at 8-30 p.m. Expenses 1fr. Very little news from the front.

Oct. 20th – Friday
Almost frozen last night (3 thin blankets). A real corker. Awake at 2 a.m. trying to get warm. Parade 6-30 a.m. & a wash before breakfast, after which my hands are absolutely numb with cold for half an hour. Toes are without feeling for hours. Beautiful
