Up 7.45. After breakfast took bus to Horseferry Rd & reported sick. Told the Dr about diarrhoea etc also about the heart. He was very interested about heart, so marked me for No 1 Australian hospital at Harefield for a Board. Left Horseferry Rd & took bus to Trafalgar Sq. Left pack at YMCA enquiry room in the Square then sent telegram to Uncle Charlie & had a shave. After getting pack took No 1 bus to Marylebone (GCR Stn). Went via Charing Cross Rd, Tottenham Ct Road, Euston Rd & Marylebone Rd & en route passed Madame Tussauds. Train left at 12.55 pm & arrived at Denham Stn about 1.30 pm. Then went in Red Cross Ambulances to the Hospital, about 3 miles away. Was put in 37 ward, a surgical ward. Nearly fainted after I arrived. Had good tea of Scrambled Egg, Fried Vegetables and Blanc Mang & Jam. After tea went to pictures getting back to ward about 8 pm. Fairly cold.
