CORRESPONDANCE
[underlined] Cannes. 25th Oct. 1945 [/underlined]
Got here today after lovely run along coast road. Visited St. Tropez on way but did not look to see if Benedictus had got back yet. There are some marvellous little spots along the coast here. This place I should imagine is rather like Brighton or Blackpool in peacetime, though all right now.
Love,
Hubby.
Writing when I get back Monday.
