Dear Mum & Dad.
I hope you are all well as I am at present. It is awfully cold here, and I will be glad when I get back to a warmer climate. I had an airgraph from Betty last monday [sic] and I was very pleased to hear from her. Well I suppose I will not get any [indecipherable word] over here for I hope to be back when the black plums are ripe so you can look forward to having me to torment you for about 14 days. I was hoping to get some leave and go over to the west coast but I doubt if we will be lucky enough to do that. Well things are very quiet at present. I hope they are the same over there, and continue to be so.
Well Mum I will have to ring off, hoping you are all well
Lots of Love
Your Loving Son
