Feeling pleased to have my big brother back on the scene; not so pleased about the
shells hitting Poperinghe. :(

Life in the trenches is... well, it’s no picnic, that’s for sure! Captain Wilkes is the saving
grace. Well played, Sir!

Things not too bad in France. Sergeant is a bit of a buffoon, but otherwise okay. Charlie
being a hero again!

The war seems to be going rather badly over there in France. Think the Peaceful boys
are going to have to sort it all out!

Who’d have thought that delivering post could be the most embarrassing job in the
world. But then, that’s treachery for you.

Who’d have thought that delivering post could be the most exciting job in the world?
But then, I guess it’s who you deliver to that matters.

What is it with some people and their power‐trips? The Colonel is such an idiot –
Father (RIP) was right about him.

Really missing Grandma Wolf – not! Had a great time at the lake yesterday. Not saying
any more than that.

Couldn’t be prouder of Charlie today – he certainly showed Jimmy Parsons a thing or
two about who to pick on!

Not a big fan of this school thing. Mr Munnings is just as bad as Charlie says, but Miss
McAllister is fine. Met a girl called Molly. Nice.
