Stammlager Luft 3 [/deleted] Deutschland (Allemagne) [page break] 26/2/45 Hello Joan Darling, I hope Dearest that I shall be home again during the Summer. It will be a good period in which to recuperate & become civilized again. Last week I read a book called “The building of a cottage” by Esther Meynell. The finished product sounded most attractive. All the people in the room have been doing house designing but how they would work out in practice we don’t have too much idea. However it is a good thing to know what one would like. The cottage idea seems most attractive to me. I hope you are “bearing up” Darling under the strain of our temporary separation. I know I always long to be with you again. Your picture is still standing on the shelf at the foot of the bed, & I am glad that I have it. I made the frame out of a cigarette box & the shelf is just cardboard from a Red Cross box. Well cheerio once again Darling & all my love. Yours always, Bob xxxxxxxx. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
