. STILL feeling a bit groggy from the feinge I had the other night on a bottle of Vitamin D» I found hiddon under a bed in one of tho tents. Wasn’t goin’ to have a pull, but had heard so much about takln ” a shot ” that before I know whoro I
was the cork was but and I had one and then another, Soon me head began to lift an’ I was spittin sparks, Then Bill Dawson, ” Panhandle ” and Bill Cossil began to sing ” Sunshine y That fair broke me up * ’cos,between oursleves, I ’aint been gettin’ on too well with mo gal and that sing made me fool kinds sentimental, I staggered up to the hospital to tell Sunshine all about it, byt she wasn’t there, so I took another ” shot ? :n: I hung round tonin’ to that Orchestra of ” Panhandlers ”, It sure makes sem v of the guys in H.Q,’s go haywire * even the Q.M. used -some choice language - and Gordon Berry wandered round in his pyjamas® But I like the noise they make on the moss tins’with and Bill Lawson on mouthorgan. Course Bill Cosoil dont look like Nelson Eddie, but he don’t shout out his songs like Jim Craig, and he al nt got the looks of M Bunny ” Se pricer, but he and ” Panhandle 1 lock like two guys from the bad - lends way. Y’ known, the old time sort? that went in for shootin’ Red Indians, robbing stage coaches and kissin’ gals in saloons, I •alnt trying to flatter ” Panhandle} * he’s a pal of mine - and I reckon the carta bloke to have round in a taught spot. n:: CAMP’S pretty quiet with all the chape away on different parts of the island; some of the boys at Con Depot, some at Bourail building the N, Z t Club and some at Transit « this place id getting something like it was at Base before wo came here* Maybe I’m gettin’ jtchy feet. Must snoop round on see these new blokes from 56th Field Coy who have moved in ' with us« Reckon they oughts have some nows of ’whets happenin’ up north. Keep it clean.
