Thursday 19^th December 1918

My birthday, I am 22 today and I am very miserable indeed for I had thought to spend it in dear old England, but not so, but I had a talk with the cooks and it ended up in a nice little spread in our hut where we celebrated very well indeed under the circumstances.

There are rumours again of another transport on Sunday to include in it all cripples and every two days after that.
