Letter to Ruth Mallory written from Avington Park Camp, Winchester
Was sorry that she had caught a chill. Was also sorry the weather had broken as it was the worse thing for the war.
They performed their gun drill this morning and spent the last 1 ½ hours in the lecture room. It was quite interesting learning the ways of a new gun. The lectures were somewhat childish but he officers weren’t very learned from a mathematical point of view.
Had been in to Winchester to have a new pipe put in the carburettor of the bike but the expert said it couldn’t be better than it was and he couldn’t think of a way to reduce petrol consumption. He had called on the Courtneys and been congratulated on his 2nd pips [being made a Lieutenant].
Thought he might go into Winton and see Rendall but might not go out in this weather.
