Dear Maud & Bill, many thanks for your letters. The last one I had was the January 18th one, received this month but, I hope that I will get a bunch of mail through soon. Cigarettes not coming in well, but hoping the situation will improve. Thanks for the blades. Bill, Study goes on. I’ve just got hold of the text books from a chap who has taken his intermediate, and have bags of work to do. So for the present, best wishes your affectionate brother Bob.
