<p>[Page 80]</p><p>Wednesday, 1 August 1917<br />The weather is most miserable and cold. Little gun drill in morning, and physical exercises etc. In afternoon signed up our pay books. It looks as though the tent is leaking and we are in for an uncomfortable night. Tonight messed in marquees.</p><p>Thursday, 2 August 1917<br />In spite of wet slept last night very well with waterproof sheet both under &amp; over me. A number of chaps slept in the stables. Still raining but cleared slightly during the day. Was again inoculated and results are rather uncomfortable. At night wrote several letters home to the girls.</p>
