Dear Mum,
I intended enclosing this surplus cash last time but forgot. Don’t like carrying it around. Would you ask Dave to get some more certificates if he is up again? There should be £7. there. Should be saving a lot more now on 7/6 a day & with nothing to spend it on.
Nothing at all to write about. Its [sic] pouring with rain as usual. Have written to Harry and Ros & enclosed letter.
Looking forward to seeing you in a few month’s time.
Love to all
