November 12. 1915
Am just about fed up sleeping like
this so to day I went out into the town
& bought a pillow for 8 annas (8') &
marched back to barracks with it as
proud as a peacock, am hoping to sleep
a bit better to night as I have had a good
hunt around & gathered up all the spare
newspapers & put them on the Bedstead
by the look of them they dont make a bad
bed. not very pretty I must admit but
better than nothing, could just do with
another couple of feathers in it any how.
November 14th 1915
Heard that we leave here on Dec.12.
For Maymyo & I dont suppose that we
shall be sorry to get back again although
it is said that it is terribly cold at Maymyo
a change will do us the world of good.
