My Dear Uncle Jim, Thank you very much for your letter of the 2nd of February, also for good wishes & kind thoughts. Have also had three very welcome letters from Babs. Please don’t worry about me as am very fit & happy enough. Will write when I can but we are limited and anyway nothing happens here apart from the weather which is the same everywhere. Am looking forward so much to seeing you all again with Mum & Dad in England!! Best love & wishes to you all from Donald
