Nothing of importance to chronicle, just carrying on usual duties and taking a stroll in the evening. When out Sunday afternoon we went to Toutencourt, about 4 miles and found it a very decent village with several nurseries. Weather much cooler with several bursts of heavy rain. We have entered a competition at the Skill of Arms Competitions or Sports all branches of the service being represented. The Ambulance each put in a squad for drill, best wagon, tent pitching and First Aid, arid I was told off to train the First Aid party, an easy job as I managed to pick out a splendid team. Outside the actual men engaged very little interest is being shown which is rather disheartening. Australian mail arrived again so feel pleased accordingly.
