I am surprised, still Church Parade is a bind I quite agree.

Eve went on leave on Saturday, Grace has’nt [sic] returned again she has a bad arm an [sic] unable to travel, so we are left with five operators, still we can manage we didn’t want to scubb [sic] Tinks leave.

Off [sic] course lady Scullian returns on the 12th, not so grand really but I dont [sic] think she will be here long.

We have a Sgts Mess dance here tonight but I’m not so keen they are only a drunken concern.
