Oct 1st

Working party out in front over night digging and wiring; Germans also had a party out working within a few yards of our fellows. Our dugout was blown in this morning by a whizz bang whilst Williams and I were inside, our kits were buried but no further damage done. We had a few Krauts over today trying to find our trench mortars; how those beggars shake the ground.

We were relieved from the fire trench and went back in the support line and stayed here until the 6th, digging, ration carrying etc.
