14th December

I haven’t written in here for a few day’s as there’s been nothing to report. We haven’t been able to go on patrol as there’s not enough blokes to send on patrol and then stag on the CP at the same time, seriously that is bad planning from the top, we can’t allow the ground we have patrolled to be left until the blokes come back off RnR. It would just make everything we have done pointless up until now.

It has been good having a bit of time off from patrol’s as it’s given me time to get my kit sorted and do some more Barma practice down the lane that me and Con set up, D… has been helping with that, again more practice in the CP is better than out on the ground.
