Wed Feb 10 1915

 

Still preparing for the shooting tests during

the afternoon played in a Football match

against a team of Gurkas won by 3-0 it

is very amusing to see them playing in

there bare feet.


Thurs Feb 11 1915

 

Very wet day so we were all marched up

to the Hospital where every man had to take

a dose of Quinine There were some lovly

faces after this and a rush to buy bananas

to take the taste out of our mouths at night

we went down to the Bazaar again & tried

to buy curios from the natives but it was

very hard to get them to part all I could

get was a very quant ring and was lucky

to get that.
