My dearest darling,
Just a very hurried line to say that my pass has gone through OK, so you can expect me sometime on the 22nd which is Tuesday dear.
I received a nice letter from Spiros today but he has been moved to a terrible camp so he says near Grantham so I shall not have much chance of seeing him unless I get a day off.
