How a driver can find his way through the veritable maze of barbed
wired roads I cannot imagine.
There were police checks everywhere with pill-boxes at every corner
& stationary armoured cars at principal cross roads.
I did not see as many soldiers as I did last time only one or two at
some check positions.
I was free from duties today but had to stand by as an available in
case something unexpected turned up.
This morning at 6 o’clock I took part in a road check outside the station. One or two contraventions were taken
otherwise the check was uneventful.
Off duty today.
This means I had nothing to do but lie on my bed and read.
This makes the time drag, as the assortment of books I at the moment
have does not improve matters.

Today starts a week of convoy duty for Bicknell & me.
Exposed to the Sun’s heat in the back of the truck am expecting to be
very sunburnt by the week’s end.
There was a very heavy storm this afternoon with hail &
thunder. The hailstones ¼ of inch.
