Heavy bombardment during night and several bombs dropped by Taubes in this vicinity.

Found two lots of money. A 6 Francs and a 40 Francs lot. Have sent in the bigger lot to H.Q. as I know who’s [sic] it is.

The maintenance people have had orders to return to their units and go tomorrow.

Went to B106 to see one of my mates. Two or three Taubes over during day.

Another dip in canal. It is hot here and plenty of work to do. This is the next biggest station to H.Qs.

Another man sent here to work the petrol pump (i.e. water column for engines) G. Beresford.

18th Train crew men recalled and sent further up the line. One went from Cappy.

Frise now closed. This is the last of the old main line stations to be shut.

The following information is from Martin Farebrother:

Confirms old line link across Somme canal closed, but line from Cappy across plateau towards Péronne remained at least partly open.

Eggs for breakfast – 3d*. each, but they were enjoyed. Weather lovely now.

*This equates to £1.16 in 2022 currency!

Had a dip in canal in afternoon. Church parade for men going in firing line.
