Kay Darling,

I received your Friday's letter. Picked up Gus OR on the bridge, & we got back about 9.40. Got 5 Oh be joyful & 3 en route. Yes Pip, How are you feeling? I enjoyed my odd night at home very much, we took the Ground Crew out last night to the hotel seemed a bit absurd me going with the crew, but could hardly back out, had an early night, I can't seem to stop that awful tired feeling.

Afraid I haven't much in the news line, am off for a sleep for a couple of hours.

Have contacted a fellow who is going to London for his leave & he will post my lighter on to me – I hope.
