Sunday 7th March 1915

A windy hot and disagreeable day. Dust rising every where and the atmosphere in a tightly laced tent choking. Single skinned tents are no good in this country in the summer time. The sun strikes through so fiercely as to compel the wearing of a hat even in the tent on the sunny side. There was a Brigade Church Parade. Padre Major Luxford preached. He preached one of the sermons he dished up to us on the “Maunganui”. We are beginning to recognize a good many of his best efforts as somewhat familiar, a circumstance which does not enhance their impressiveness. Most of us managed to make up some of our lost sleep during the day.
