Handed over my duties altho' final orders for the move have not yet arrived. Weather fine. Papers give a slight British reverse also news of the Nationalist Party's win in Australia. Had a go at cricket also at Badminton the Q.M. producing a set, some game. Mail from Australia more papers than letters for me however. Our deaths in last stunt now total 4, all fine fellows two of my section & two being orderlys for the Sgt's mess. My section suffered the worst as usual.
