Friday, 19 January 1917

Fine with   cold wind blowing. We packed up & left our billets at Strazeele about 10 AM & came up to our positions at Armentières.   The waggon lines are about four miles behind the lines. Jesus Farm. We have good covered stables with flaged floor so we have no mud. We have small huts to sleep in, & are very comfortable though crowed.   I was lucky & got a bunk to sleep in. I came up driving lead of a G.S waggon, & was lucky to get it as I came straight to the waggon lines, while the others went up to the pits & did not get back till all hours of the night. I was on picket at night. Well I have got to this war at last after a year & 14 days in the army.
