Saturday 13th November


Arose at 7.  Good wash and splendid lunch – roast beef, spuds, rice and fruit.
Afternoon went with James up to the Apex.  Tremendous climb.  NZ officer conducts us up.  This is the most important position in the Peninsula. Turks 40 yards away and dead bodies in front.  Watched trench catapult fling bombs 100 yards.  Exhausting climb back up steep sheer cliff.  Sat at top for breather.  Discovered place with “dangerous” on it, but too tired to move (Bedford post attacked).  For dinner, a scraggy Byzantine chicken.  Got from Lemnos.  Knocked all the mess up today.
