Dear Mother,
I didn’t get into trouble when I got back but some fellows did. I got a talking too but didn’t get the worst of it. I had had a long way to go and tried the O.C. I hadn’t had enough leave among other things but I had been transferred into the Batt and was under another man who took a ?? mess of it.
I will send you an enlarged photo when I get home to get it framed.
I won’t sail for about 2 or 3 weeks I think. Some of the battalions have gone – got away today. I heard we might go to India to take the place of the troops going from there. But it’s only wireless. The Captain of the 18th told the men they might go there and he may know. But it’s almost like backing race horses.
Love from Stid.
