September, 1915
Saturday 18
Went Cairo to join the Reg: remnants at a Dinner & had photo taken to send you sort of run into it by Mess [indecipherable] You will think I'm always being photographed & wasting L.S.D. I know I'm no oil painting. Quite forgotten all about our diary over Deadman's Ridge at Anzac, yet I hear our men are still lying there unburied, as no burial time has been granted & it is quite impossible to go over the parapet.
