Diary Entry - 14th October, 1916

Walford: Another cold day spent at the Maillet position. Bailley and Siggers turned up about six and stopped for an hour. Then, about eight, they phoned me to come in, so I set out for the Mess without waiting for my relief. As it was the anniversary of the Captain's command of the battery, we had a dinner. Kellagher was there, as also was Bailley. All went well - in fact, almost too well with the latter - he gave us an amusing speech in which he contradicted himself about ten times. The after effects about bed time were also rather bad.

Bee: Today and yesterday, nothing much doing, just kept digging, but can't get any information as to when the show is coming off.
