mere lots of places that were not touched it sure is a problem finding iour way around in a blackout i was almost run down once or twice by buses but luckily i escaped our unit has just returned from a ten day scheme and we are all glad to get settled in camp again while out on these manoeuvres we slept out in the open and believe me it gets real chilly in the wee hours of the morn ing now one night pete tost and i were sleeping together on a little bit of a slope in some woods and i woke up to find i had rolled down the hill in my sleep and was about ten feet from my bed i dldn t waste any time crawling back into the blankets as it waf quite chilly we staved two days in one lovely town where no canadians had been before the people were very kind us we were on guard at a large school while we were there and every morning about five or six o clock the ladies would bring us out hot tea and cake it sure was a swell place the children just swarmed over our camp vihich was just on the edge of the town they were there drat thing in the mornings and lost thing at nlgnt this kept us quite busy signing auto graphs and looking for souvenirs while on our way back the truck we were in broke down right n an other nice town so we had to stay overnight there we had a nice time there and next day proceeded on our way home after the truck had been repaired i forgot to mention that while our truck was being towed to the garage we had to ride in an other truck and to our surprise there were three lovely chickens in the back of it they looked so good that we took them along with us roas chicken and was it good well i must close for now as it is almost time for lights out i hope you will be able to make some sense out of this jumble of words so long for now and the best of luck
