that whilst in England I have my photo taken with Fred. That's exactly what I did do. No doubt you have the photos ere now.

Well Mater dear my time is not exactly my own just now so I shall say Aurevoir protem. Besides this is all the paper I have at my command.
I sincerely trust alls well at home & that you the Pater & the Boy are all enjoying the best & brightest of health & happiness.
I am, as ever, top-hole. Ridiculously fit & well and horribly homesick.
Love to Pater Bob Bert & Maie, a Kiss for the Little Wonder, Kindest regards to Aunts Alice & Mary Uncle Walter Mr Wes Smith Mr Kennedy & to all people who are kind enough to ask after me.
To you, dearest Mater mine, fondest love & tons of it, cheeriest thoughts, brightest & best wishes & happiest remembrances from your ever loving son
Art
You will pardon this awful screed, wont you Mater dear?
