Dearest,
Just a hurried note to tell you that I landed back here OK last night. I did not have to change trains from M/C London R I [?] to Grimsby & was in G-y [sic] at 9.30 but had to hang around until 10.30 for a bus to camp.
We are not flying tonight, but we had a nice little jaunt around the Wash this afternoon. That is why I didnt [sic] get this away earlier.
I am awfully browned off as usual when returning from leave. It is a pity Really [sic] because It is a glorious day. So nice & warm.
