My Darling Dick

Still no letters from you but we are hoping for one soon However I am writing in hope you may receive it. I expect you did remember Dads Birthday last Wednesday. We went to Aunty Doris's to tea on Sunday and do you know we missed the last bus home or rather it wouldn't stop because it was so full. So back we went and left Mary with Aunty Doris while Dad and self came back on bikes 11 pm

Miss Jones came up last week sends her love to you. Gordon gave me a nice snap of Wes. Grandad Hand is much better now. Nanny Morrison [?] has moved to a small bungalow now. No more now my darling son we all send Tons of love including Pop-Mary-Bob-Vic-Bet-Hilda-Daisy Kath and of course your Loving Mum
