9th November 1915


A submarine patrolling off the beach at Anzac - submarines, both friendly & enemy,
were regular visitors off Gallipoli.

It looks overcast to-day. This afternoon I went along to Y.M.C.A. Canteen to get cakes for Headquarters. Every day I will make this trip now & let the different units of our Brigade take the goods secured.
