8 June, 1911

Didn't turn out till 1PM! I had the most cracking headache, due in large part to the consequences of being on duty, and not of the whiskey I sipped while on it.

Walked out to and around the berg in the bright moonlight, but clouds came up from the south.

Tried using my snow knife, which is coming on well. Debenham and Gran went off to Hut Point this morning; they should return tomorrow. Deb is particularly anxious to retrieve his fossil collection.

Am too shattered to write more and can't wait to lie down, quite frankly.
