Fine & warm. Cleaning harness in morning & I went out to load amunition at L'Epinette dump in afternoon & was there all afternoon. We juggled about 5000 18 pdr shells & it was no holiday either. Heard Fritz was strafing our positions. Went up with the waggons at night & found Fritz had knocked things about a bit & set fire to the dump which was still burning with 2000 rounds ammunition in it. He put a few more over while we were there. D & F sub guns were outed & had to go to ordinance, & a couple (Serg. Kill & Bom Dowling) got slight shrapnell wounds. Gunners lost all personel equiipment ect. except what they stood up in.
