1916

Friday 29th Dec.

Misty rain in morning, & a cold gale in evening. We had reviellie at 3 AM & moved out of camp at 7.15 AM & all were very glad to get a move on at last. We entrained at Amesbury & reached Southhampton Docks about midday. Got all our battery gear on board & with the 25th Bat & 33rd (Qld) we sailed at 8 pm in an old German boat the "Huntscraft" (nèe Südmark). It was bitterly cold but not two rough.

Saw Spes Wharton marching into camp as we marched out, in the morning.
