My Own Dearest Wife,
We have arrived safely on
this side after a short train journey
and a comfortable time on the boat.
I turned into my bunk shortly
after eight o'clock was asleep
in half an hour & woke for
a short time about 1 am. Dee
did very well as regards
dinner & breakfast. We expect
to move off during the day
& shall have a long time in
the train. I expect you will
be getting near W. London now
& I trust you will have a
pleasant journey. The men are
very cheerful & seem to be
very pleased that they have
at last been allowed to come
over & do this "bit." One can
hardly realize that one is out
