giving exact particulars.
To our great astonishment we all suddenly got three days leave which have just expired.
I spent the first evening with the Langleys in London, the second with the Barnardistons at Ipswich and the third with the Robertses at Waking - at all places I had the warmest welcome & all three visits were most refreshing and interesting. I was delighted with Ipswich & there I got in touch with naval things, smelt the sea & seaweed & saw all kinds of craft. The Robertses took we over to Windsor for the day - we drove both ways through the great park.
St. George's Chapel alone is worth coming all the way to see.
It was a great day. A thousand things were of interest to me as a soldier that I should not have understood before.
