They were very friendly, and said we could travel all over the back of the line by going from one "Graves" to another "Graves." All good chaps, I'm sure, and cheerful, but we did not do it.
The next day after lunch we drove to Rollencourt, and found the Major in his office (a hut on the lawn in front of the chateau).

He left, and returned to say the Colonel could not see us then.

Would we come back at 5 p.m.?
So off we went and sat by the side of the road for two hours.

Then again to the Major's at 5 p.m., when he informed us the Colonel had gone out.

Would we come back at 7 p.m.?
(No tea offered.) This we did and waited until 7.50, when the Major informed us that the Colonel would not see us that evening, but we were to report the next morning at 9 a.m.
