My Own Darling Marion,
I have got a new place to write
in today for last night we moved into a
new house - much larger than the last
one. The move took place whilst I was
having dinner with HdQrs so it did not
cause me any inconvenience. I had to
leave my arm chair behind + so I have
made a new one this afternoon. I found a
nice shady place where, with a little
clearing, the bushes made an excellent
back rest. A sandbag loosely filled
with dry earth formed the seat, while
a hole dug in the ground gives me
room for my feet + allows me so sit
straight up in comfort. I am still in
the same wood having moved less
than fifty yards this time. I have
had a pleasant afternoon, rest
