Claudius. Look you here Mormy – dont go slinging boiling water around your house & scalding thighs etc. Really you might have had a bad timer that time if you had'nt had thick cloths on. And you did'nt tell me, either It was Nance or Joan that "split" on you. I believe, if you had lost or scalded all your thighs, youo would'nt have told me. Well I'll knock off now darlings.

I'm so glad your getting that tin all right I was afraid there would be delay etc.

I feel proud to be able to supply a few necessary things, "duds" etc, to my mormy.

Cheer-oh sweethearts & Best Love to yourself
Your boy
John

PS. My little mare is still going strong. Her name is "Ma Cherie" which is just the sort of name to suit her I'm getting a photo taken of her & me by one of the fellows.
