Fine & warm. Had a spell & a read in the morning & fixing up the pit in the afternoon. Bill Hunter & self had a bit of a bath in a waterhole up the road & it was great; I feel about two stone lighter since I had it. Fritz sent over a lot morning & we sent a lot of heavies over to him after.   We got orders for three men to stay at the pits & the rest to sleep in an infantry subsidiary trench quarter of a mile behind.   Bill & I got a good concrete machine gun emplacement to sleep in.
