My dear Father,
Yesterday I told you I hadn't yet received all the parcels. Now I have. As it happened the razor blades turned out to be the most needed. I don't know how you think of all these things. Generally I don't know I want them myself until they arrive.
I don't remember if I told you how unfortunate I was with some pay last week. When I came to total up the sheets I found that my credit balance was £37-12-9 short. It really serves me right, & will make me more careful in the future. The only thing that surprises me is that instead of £37 I didn't loose £120. Still I have not been extravagant & so am not left short.
As news papers are not very plentiful here I have no news to give you, so will close. Give my love to Mother & the rest of the household.
Your affectionate son,
Arthur
