Dear Mam & Dad,

Please notice the address is Bentinck Close, I thought I'd better write in case I didn't get your letter [deleted] so [/deleted] if you have alrready [sic] written: write again to the correct address.

Where we are is on the other side of the road to Regents Park and for meals we have to go into the Park and into the zoo.

I’m [sic] am alright and will write again when I get your reply. I'm still busy but I'll try and find time to write to Fred & Hats.

Your loving son

Lewis
