Friday. 8. am
My Dear Mother & Dad
This is just a short note written after I have had breakfast, having been on duty. If I don’t write now it will be too late to catch the post for delivery tomorrow, because I am going to bed now as I am feeling tired & wish to go to bed as early as possible. I wonder if you [inserted] would [/inserted] phone Alice at Blackburn [inserted] tomorrow [/inserted] & tell her, otherwise she will have to wait until Monday for news, & it is pretty deadly waiting as you know.

I haven’t anything else to report just at the moment so I’ll say cheerio.
All my love & best wishes.
Douglas.
Rooster is still in good health & being well trained & well behaved.
