Brownie has the chair at the tent he is talking school & footer. The latter is booming here at present. A & B sqds played C.sqd this after noon, there was no score but it was a great game. C is squeking, a good sign. The horses are fresh though they dont look too good; usually when we are going to water about half a doz get loose. We were duty squadron to day & its not much chop, we had hardly enough men to take the horses out. I feel as much inclined to writing as flying; wish they would move us somewhere thought dont have any longing to go out El Arish way. There is talk of a move shortly but I dont think we will move out, fancy we'll go the other way.
