Thanks, sweetheart for today’s letter, with it came this from Aussie, so it was a good day for me. Things here have been very dull, our schools, theatres & debates have been taboo, because a mild flu epedemic,, the British doctors, particularly good men, have it now under control, so with the improvement of weather we should soon be able to move about again. I have written to Australia House, asking of the possibilities of be-ing sent home via England, am waiting on a reply.

A couple of them, incidentally, will thank you as warmly as I do for the cigarette parcels you send me, we share everything & lately your parcels have kept us smok-ing. Fred mentioned a family photo you had sent, it has apparently gone astray, would you [indecipherable word] one in your next letter.
I’ll bet Nancy was excited going to her first dance, I would like to have been taking Dermot’s place. Have you had any mail from Gladys? Les tells me she has opened a business outside Melbourne. She’s a marvellous girl.
Best to Fred’s family
Love, [underlined] Will [/underlined]
