Awakened to-day by Toovell turning up about 7.30 re incinerators.

After seeing Paul about many things & finishing up in the S.S. Office I went down to see him (about 12.0) By the time I had cleared up matters with him it was lunch time & after lunch I had to go to the S.S. Office again about the German prisoners who are going to Ahmednagar on Sat. There are 14 of them. Lamont with an NCO & 6 men have to go as escort -- by the 10.41. I don't envy him the job at all.

Got back to the Bungalow about 3.45 & sallied forth again about 4.50 to play Hockey for the Specialists v. NCO's. It wsa a good game & ended in a draw: no score.
