17 June 1916

Reveille at 5 am. Laying out the lines for ‘C” sub section gun again, and finishing the signal pit. Heard some fairly heavy firing this morning; it might be the monitors bombarding Jaffa or El Arish again.

Bathed this morning but the water was really too warm to be refreshing. A shark was seen very close inshore, but I didn’t see him. Badcock on the mend this evening, ought to be fit again tomorrow.

On duty in the O.Pip tonight.
