Gallipoli Peninsular
Dear Mick
Yesterday I despatched three portions of camuflaged diary to you & trust the same will find you quicker than it left me.
Today the Mission visited Gaba Tepe from whence Jacko used to pound Anzac beach. I managed to get a small painting of the stuff one sees of Anzac & environs from Gaba Tepe. The expeditions are nearing the end of their course and I think from now on I shall be able to concentrate on the necessary data for my picture or pictures.
Spruce is up and about but a bit Malarious.
Today I rode a one eyed cob or Welsh pony which has been tried & found wanting by every other member of the outfit and I had a most enjoyable ride. The little chap is a gentleman but fastidious and it is not boasting to say he performed like a show ring hack or saddle horse under my fatherly hand.
