My darling Mummy.
Please excuse me writing in pencil. I am sorry for not answering one of your letters as I did not have it on me. No I did not find out why my leave was stopped. Another boy and I are the leaders of the choir. It will soon be time for the gym display. A few days ago we went to see a picture called, “Win that Girl” and it was very nice. Foot-ball season has started now. To-day is a holiday being the king’s birthday and we are going dow [deleted] ing [/deleted] to the market square in about an hour. We are having nice weather again. Stevie went to the Dentist yesterday and had some of the gaps between his front teeth filled.
I am ending now with lots of love and kisses from your loving son
