Diary Entry - 11th August, 1917

Wright went on leave at one p.m. from Bethune. Hewitson and self went up the trenches, on the way looking at some old gun positions, in order that, if it is necessary, we can move into them. We almost got lost after leaving Railway Alley and, as is usual, you meet the man who 'thinks he knows his way and doesn't' and probably get desperate. Having found Battalion HQ they told us there was nothing doing and that the line was quiet so we came home to lunch at one thirty p.m.
