"J" boat roll was called this morning, & as I expected, I am on it. There are about 800 on it, out of this camp. The next boat roll is expected to clear the camp out. Went through medical inspection this morning, & kit inspection this afternoon. I had to hand back a pair of boots, a tunic, jack knife, & knife, folk & spoon. Everyone seems to be very pleased to be on the roll. A Bournemouth party gave a concert in the gym this evening, they weren't too bad.

"L" boat roll left early this morning to embark. We are expecting to leave tomorrow morning. Very dull & wet day. A party from the Pavillion Theatre, Weymouth gave a concert in the Gym this afternoon, they were very rough.
Received orders tonight, reveille 3.30 am tomorrow morning, breakfast 4 am, so we will have to be up pretty early.
