They put one right through a huge mine crater - it thinks nothing of going across a 10 ft trench. There was wild excitement when they passed through us at night - Our Bn is now supposed to be resting for [another? coup?] but they won't let us stop anywhere; we are always on the tour - Thank mother for her dear letters & Fowkes for his budget of news.
Beatrix [Simonds?] writes [most?] kindly & offers to send me anything.
