car yesterday... It, the car I mean, runs beautifully - and it does do one good to go a-wheeling through the air, does it not.
I never did so much sewing in my life as I've done these past two months. I've made myself such a number of dinky little jumpers, altered my dresses to bring them quite up to date, and fitting myself out with the latest in hats... It seems to be quite a new turn I've taken as though all the art I once put into poetry I'm now putting into wearing apparel. Isn't it funny.
So you'd rather we came out to Aussie than build at "Sulby", would you. Well, Harry, you did not give my father much encouragement to come when he wrote you about the matter, you know.... and now he appears to be less keen. But, of course, one never knows one's fate.
Well, my dear laddie, we all join in the best of love to you, and hopeing that you and yours all keep well and content we send ove to them also. (Horror of horrors! we start our house-cleaning-down the close of this coming week - So shall n't have a moment in which to write again for ever so long.
Au revoir
Marie
