turned into a Hospital – The Palace is fine place & holds I think about 1000 beds – Have hardly got the swing of their money yet – Went into Cairo in the evening – suffice to say Kitchener said it took him 20 years to make Cairo & the Australians have undone it in 20 minutes. I am sadly afraid when next lot of Tourists visit Egypt they will be more than shocked at the Nigs Language.

Quite cold all day – About 100 A.M.C. men sent at 5.30am this morning for some unknown destination, all the Field Ambulance men who came on Wondilla were sent away. During the day there was a call for Volunteers to go somewhere unknown. I volunteered but was promptly turned down & told there was no hope of any L.H.F.A. getting away – mostly L.H.F.A. in Camp here now – Don't know why they are retaining all L.H.F.A.
