16/3/16 Thursday

Very hot all day – Went for a route march – across the desert a bit.

Went into Cairo at night & met two fellows from Enoggera – fly flats – they were going to show us Cairo, which they did with a vengeance, we finished up lost in a blind alley & in a very poor delapidated quarter. All soldiers have to be out of Cairo by 9-15 pm – this made us late – so much so that we had to take tram out to Helliopolis & walk across the sand – got home by 10 pm.

17/3.16 Friday

Very hot a dust storm all day – sand blowing about freely – very hard on the eyes. Never gave St Patricks day a thought – Have a very sore heel I strained a tendon a week ago at the Pyramids – comes against me marching
