Up about 6 o’clock. Had breakfast at the canteen and paraded early. Crossed by 11 o’clock ¹ and arrived in London shortly after 3. Had tea at the Y M hut and left by the 5.30². Came up most of the way with an engineer chap. Arrived at midnight and found Joe and Father waiting for me.

1. 11 o’clock: Presumably the 11am sailing from Boulogne (A) to Folkestone? ↩

2. 5.30: presumably the 17:30 train from London (B) to Sunderland (C). ↩
