I saw the lad the day before he went under and he was quite bright and enthusiastic.

You say you will not wish me many happy returns of 9th Dec as I may not be comfortably off on that day.  As a matter of fact I have hopes of being very happy on that day for, if all goes well I may be in "Blighty" when of course I shall give myself a cheery party to commemorate the important event.

No news of great importance.  Syd & Fred are quite in the Pink according to reports just received as this goes to press.

Keep smiling & cheerfully patient dear Mater.  And dont you dare get ill again.

I sincerely trust
