Very little to do in the ward. At 2 went off duty, met Mary at Queen’s St & Went to Exmouth. It was a lovely afternoon, and when we reached the Sands we suddenly wished to go for a row so we hired a boat & a boatman & had a lovely peaceful time. We had an old boatman, who had lived at Exmouth all his life, so had his gdfather before him.
When I said that it would be terrible if the Germans bombarded the place, all he said was “Well I suppose if they came, we should have to put up with them.” Truly Devonian.
We had tea with the Worthington’s and came back to Exeter by the 5 train. I’ve had supper with Mary at her billet.
