[underlined] Wednesday [/underlined]
Darling
Just a little note to let you know that I am still alive & fir, and as busy as a bee Well the weather here is Marvelous [sic]. Really! This last three days have been Scorchers. I do wish you [corrected] were [/corrected] here with the Boys., but it is too far [corrected] to [/corrected] travel with Tony yet (14 hrs trip) By the way I hope you got that bag of tools from Hardmans Garage. I am pleased you have fixed up with Gee’s because that will be handy for getting it out. That chap seems worse than Arthur Wharburton for getting jobs done.
Have you heard any more yet, and was there any mention with your allowance about Civil [undecipherable] rates?
[page break]
we have our first exam on Wednesday next If survive that I shall be here for another 6 weeks & then [underlined] possibly [/underlined] have a weeks leave. Dont [sic] Bank on it too much because if I go under I shall get my leave then because I shall be shifted to another station. I shall be sorry to leave this place in away but it would be alright if I got nearer to go.
I think if the Dr Advises a change of air for David I should write Auntie because a change would do you good.
Well I must Close now if I want to catch the Pot
Love
Ian.
