My Dear Laddie.
This is my second letter to you
today, though the first was really Tuesday's
news. Your mother had a letter from Norrie
today. He has been made assistant
transport officer, so that will mean he will
be more out of the trenches won't it. He wants
some spurs sending at once. - always the same
Norrie's letters always cause a laugh because
they say without fail 'Send me such & such
an article at once." So with you in hospital
and Norrie in a less dangerous position your
mother thinks she is fortunate. This morning
of course I sat on the Spa and wrote to you.
Mr. Green stayed today and through some
misunderstanding he was waiting on the front
whilst your mother went on to the Bathing Pool.
Isn't it always the way? And to to coown all
your mother hurried off and I did the shopping
-
