Prospects of an early move now as we have commenced to strike our tents, the North being our probable destination. Have just finished the last of four books I had sent to me some time ago, "The Heart of Midlothian," "Confessions of an English Opium Eater," "Origin of Species" Diary of Samuel Pepys, and have thoroughly enjoyed the four & have gained much from the reading.
Monday 23rd July.
Still in the same place but our move is now much closer, 3 or 4 days should see us on the move. Am having a busy time as my partner is on leave in Paris & all the packing up etc falls to me. Had a good day in Amiens last week & saw more of the town than before visiting the Art Gallery, Town Hall etc. Main items of the day were a hot bath, & two good feeds. Still no mail & have received the information that the last was sunk so our luck was out. A new Dental unit attached for a few days brought to light some friends of 12 months ago when in "Estairs."
