We come back here for a bath
+ two days rest + refit. so that
we could do one more stunt
before going back for our long
expected + much desired eight
days rest. I hope to get a good
night's rest tonight so that I
shall be in form for thirty six
hours without a wink. There will
be plenty to keep us occupied but
expect it will chiefly be pick
+ shovel work, but cannot tell
until I have actually got on the
spot. I feel much better after
my hot bath, in a shed which
let in rain + hail, to say nothing
of the wind, whilst I was bathing.
The clean clothes are also comforting
I think I shall get into Pyjamas
to night but shall have to breakfast
early in the morning 'cause I've
got to get over at least four miles
