Had Regimental drill this morning, but broke out of the ranks to do signalling practice; Was issued with a pack horse at dinner time to carry signalling gear; Was also issued with signalling equipment (new) & put the afternoon in doing nothing; Les received a pass from dinner time , & I scaled off as soon as I had fed the horses & taking the Kukri in to post it went to Cairo; Called to see Morgan as we went & found him improving fast; Arthur & Bottom went in with me & we had a very enjoyable time, but found it was too late to send the Gurkhas's knife so left it at a cake shop where we are regular customers & came back to camp early; Was surprised on weighing tonight to find I weigh 12 stone 5 lbs.
