after midnight, we dare not do otherwise
if we had, we should have had our
beds tipped over on to the floor but
we managed to get into bed about
2-0- clock in the morning.
Christmas morning we were up in
very good time although we went
to bed very late or rather early.
of course on Christmas day the men
are not supposed to do any thing on
that day & they are waited on by
the non commisioned officers.
about 8-o-clock we all sat down to
breakfast & I must say we had a
very good one i ever had Porridge
bacon & eggs jam & marmalade tea &
coffee & we all enjoyed it.
After Breakfast we had a very good
walk about six miles. Some people
might think we went for a walk
just to get a good appetite for our
dinners but they would be quite
wrong we did not.
