Fine day again, and very warm. Fritz still very busy on back areas, & does a good bit of damage in the chinks [Chinese] camp & among our ASC. Fine night. I see Bert again & we have a nice evening together. I put 3 lots on the heart & win each time.

Fine day again. I go off to Busnettes in the afternoon, & nearly stop one. A shall hits D Coy Hd Qrs killing 1 & wounding several others, Hubbard among the latter. Fritz active again at night, but not near us. Follies give a concert to Bttn at 5.30 pm very good.

Fine day again & very hot. Nothing much doing all day except the usual gunning. Fritz comes over at night & drops a very heavy bomb quite close to our billet, no casualties, except a goat, which some of our men had got for a pet.

Fine day. Fritz very active with aircraft & back area shelling. I go up to Bttn in the morning & have a talk to the Col [Colonel] who wants me to stay here, which I intend to do if possible, for a short time. Have a rotten time at night as Fritz gets busy on Labouverie & Le PUGNOY
