Wed. 25/6/41.
My dear Douglas.
We have now had more than a week of beautiful summer weather following a very long cold winter. You can guess how warm it has been when I tell you that we have not had a fire since Monday week June 16th – a record time for us to live in the house without a fire. On Sunday the heat was really uncomfortable & we welcomed a storm in the evening – a lot of lightning which from our elevated position was most spectacular. We stood & watched the long forks apparently traveling downward to meet the earth beyond our horizon but we have no news of any damage. There was little rain, tho’ the vegetation is in sore need of moisture. Our strawberries & raspberries are very tiny & we [underlined] did [/underlined] want them to be nice & big & [deleted one word] juicy. I have just returned from Nelson & the price of strawberries there is 1/1 a quarter pound. 4/4 a lb. Isn’t it absurd? I would never pay that price for them. Do you remember how we used to enjoy the first ones Mr Hodcroft supplied? I do hope you are able to buy fruit it will help to keep you cool. I just keep on thinking
[page break]
of you all the time & it is a great joy to us to have such recent news of you [deleted word] [inserted] as [/inserted] the cables of Monday & Saturday last week brought to us. We are wondering all the time how you are faring in your new camp. I hope you are well treated, as in the last one [new paragraph symbol] You know, love, when I’ve sent off a letter to you, I always remember many things I might have mentioned. Just now I’ve noticed on the mantel-piece the clock which was such a welcome Christmas gift some years ago. It ticks merrily away & keeps splendid time. The clock in the hall was broken in removing[?] & it is not possible to get new chimes now so we shall have to wait until more peaceful days for them. There is one next door that makes a queer noise in chiming – it sounds like a “whirr” coming to us from so far away & sometimes if I am awake in the small hours I get quite a shock. Another little thing to tell you about: - the pretty little cactus rock plant which we brought together from Penyffordd is thriving well on the rockery here & we are so glad. We do want you to find very many things almost as you left them if we can preserve them for you [new paragraph symbol] Auntie Gladys came for the day yesterday. It was grand weather & we had a good trip around including a visit to Dad at the works – a 4th bus ride from here. It is quite a nice little place & very pleasantly situated only hope he’ll manage to hold it [new paragraph symbol] Now love I must say Goodbye to you. It was splendid that you got my letter of May 29th 3[?] weeks. We have no letters from you since the one date April 4th & are eagerly waiting. All our love Mother & Dad.
The cable received last Sat. says “writing twice weekly”. Suppose it should read twice monthly.
