23rd November 1915
Our concert party met with an excellent reception at the hands of the A.S.C. 9th Reserve Park who are billeted in an old chateau set in the midst of a large wood. Le Petit Corporal received an ovation with his 'Reverie" by Schuman and 'Ave Maria' by Gunod on his violin. My exhibition of sword swinging was well received. Morris recited 'The One Legged Goose' and 'Comrade Jim' - Ditchman accompanied on piano excellently. Hopgood on the one-stringed fiddle was also received with great enthusiasm, whilst Hardy made perfect time with the side drum. We came home packed on a motor lorry and all singing.
