I go to the store and say goodbye to all. Ada Southam is madly in love with me – we kiss. Miss Kidd gives me a royal send off at the station.
Arr. London at 12:15. To Waterloo to take 1:15 train for Gosport. Arr. at 4:30 PM in a snowstorm. Go straight to Ernests & find both at home. Zepps kill 12 people & 33 injured (5 Children 4 Women).
Friday 16th April 1915 – fine
Packing up ready to go to Shorncliffe to rejoin my regiment. I leave Portsmouth Harbour at 12:05 noon. Arrive at Waterloo at 2:25. Left [G.E. and C. Ry] at 3:30 and arrive at Shorncliffe at 4:50. Walked two miles to Barracks. Had no sleep at night. Lots of talk and a fight. Sent postcards to Ernest.
