Monday 31st Dec. 1917:-

Yesterday I went into Boulogne on leave and visited various friends there as well as out at Wimereux. It was a rotten kind of day, cold & windy with plenty of snow on the ground. There are 6 or 7 sent daily from the Ambulance to Boulogne, being taken in and brought out on lorries.
