Xmas Day Festivities (?) in a German Military Hospital
By L/Cpl Towler (Returned Prisoner of War)
1. 5.30: Reveille (very humorous)
2. 5.40: Washing (absurdly funny - no soap and no flannel)
3. 7.30: V.A.B. (Very appetising breakfast) Menu: Black bread, two slices; jam
4. 8.30: Bosche doctor arrives. Tells us 'Mr Grey' is the cause of all our trouble; does dressings.
5. 11 o'c: Dinner (not prepared by Savoy chef): Horseflesh; vegetables; that's all
6. 6.30 p.m.: Tea (extra-superfine Ceylon); black bread; jam
7. 7.30 p.m.: Supper (highly delectable): Basin vegetable soup; H2O blend wine
8. 8 p.m.: Lights out. Chorus by hospital staff: "Gott strafe England"
