Dear Mum, Dad, Yvonne & Moira,
Just a line to let you know what is going on here now.
We have been to the flicks 3 times this week & having been having quite a good time.
I have seen other chaps I knew here now, so that everyone I’ve ever met in the R.A.F. seems to be here.
I’m enclosing £3-0-0, which I would be obliged if you would bank for me, or keep at least.
I have seen Denis several times & he has just come into my hut now. We shall both look out for Donald as we shall be meeting him soon.
We are going out to-gether [sic] to-night.
Well I shan’t be writing again for some time as there is not much news. So Cheerioh [sic] & love to all
Terry
