Diary Entry - 19th October, 1916

Walford: Thursday, the day having been fine, you could only expect it to rain that night, and it did do, very heavily, continuing through the day. I read in the Mess all morning and after lunch looked the signallers up in their billet and also walked over to D36 to see Sanger, who was away. They have a good position along a line of trees but their dugouts were all leaking after the heavy rain. Some of them looked like underground tanks.

Bee: Woke up with the rain dripping through onto my bed. It is a good summer house but the roof will have to be patched
