Wednesday, 4 April 1917

Fine but dull & we had a storm of sleet in afternoon.   Cleaning things round stables ect. all morning & we went up the river (Lys) & grazed the horses for a couple of hours in afternoon. Pay parade in evening. We are paid at the rate of 1 franc = 8 ½d.  & all the civilian people reckon 1 franc = 10d.  so we make 1 ½d. on each franc. I got two letters from father 26th  Mar &  6th  Feb. & a letter 26 Jan & a "Bulletin" from Linda.
