would enjoy a stroll through
the woods & grounds. Guess
its better than shell holes and
dug-outs etc. What about your head
and where were the other
wounds & have you saved the
bits of shrapnel? Perhaps its
as well I am not your nurse
for am sure I should besiege
you with questions. Delia
has just been over & sends her
very kind love & best wishes.
also says don't be in a hurry to
get well. They have just lost
another cousin at the front.
He was home on 2 months leave
at Xmas & I met him & his
wife at Delia's one evening, now
left side, page 8 of letter
the beans are very sparse. The
worms have had a good feed.
Glad you have an assorted
Company of men, you will
no doubt have a good time
comparing notes, etc.
Much love from both Dad
& self
Your loving Mother.
Find out how far the Hospital is
from Bristol & the best way
to get to it & if it can be
done in a day from Homsey.
Then later on we may get the
half fare voucher & pop in
on you. Enjoy all the luxuries
you get.
