Tuesday, March 19th Train to Amiens about 11 AM. Arrived about 6. Alighted. M. Police refused to let us out. Waited until the train running in connection with ours had gone. M. Police still refused; found another train which would land us in Péronne at 11 PM, after tortuous winding & sundry changes. Accidentally lost this train. Was rude to M.P. Told R.J.O we should probably find a squadron tender waiting. Next train 6 AM. Left station. Found no tender. Booked room at the Belfort. Went to the Godbert and devoured a mighty dinner. Met Martin Sinclair and Rees (going on leave). Decided to stop.
