Saturday December 25th CHRISTMAS DAY
Went to the 7.0 this morning. The first chance I have had for some Time.
Church Parade at 9.15. As I don't belong to any Company now I did Acting Adjt. to the O.C. Parade.
Looked in at the men's Dinners to-day in accordance with the Christmas Army Custom. Fortunately The Men and Adjt arrived just about the same time, so I was saved speechmaking.
A lazy afternoon and then went to the Holmes' for the evening. Had the best dinner I had had since I have been out here and the music and games afterward; Quite a jolly evening. We left about 11.45.
