England.
7-30 a.m. Friday May 22nd/42.
My dear Douglas.
Yesterday was your birthday & I just seemed to be with you all the time & I was wondering what form our celebration would have taken had we been together. At any rate we can look forward to a real jubilee in the future. It [underlined] will [/underlined] be a birthday when we are together again.
Well love I’ve been thrilled this week to have 14 (fourteen) letters from you & one last Friday making 15 altogether in one week dating from January 14th to March 11th, & five photographs. The group with the Padre, the group under the tree with a modern Tarzan in one of the [indecipherable word], Douglas looking “glum”, with a new style of hairdressing, the three of you, Tony looking very cheery but Douglas not so cheery, & the cookery demonstration, and I say hat’s off to the cook (or cooks) who achieve such beneficial (judging by tunic belt) results with such simple machinery. Well love it’s a joy to have all your news & to know that things are not too bad. I was very interested to learn more about your journalistic ambitions & thrilled to bits that a cartoon I sent proved an inspiration to one of your artists. I shall look forward to looking through the magazines at a future time & hope there may be some reproduction in the Red Cross publication “The Prisoner of War” which has
[page break]
just been started. We had the first Edition (monthly) at the beginning of May. I see in this morning’s paper that permission has now been given for Red Cross representatives to visit prisoners under Japanese control & I am hoping that means we may soon have news of Ted Hole. My thoughts are so much with Mr & Mrs Hole all this long time & we await with hope the news that Ted is safe. Now love I must try to straighten out a few misunderstandings. When you asked for a parcel, with tea, by Air Mail I got a small OXO tin in it packed 4 ozs tea 3 blocks choc. 20 cigarettes packed tightly in 2.10 pkts & some boiled sweets & took it to Nelson G.P.O. where they refused to take it as Air Mail parcels were not allowed. They advised me to apply for a special permit. That was refused by the permits officer at Liverpool. And the parcel is still here just as it was packed. On a printed form from Liverpool I learned that wristed watches were not allowed to be sent to prisoners so I must just repeat that it is just luck that has got these things through to your men. The cigarettes were ordered through the State Express Company & I do hope you have now received them. I’m afraid the parcel containing 2 towels 2 pairs socks 6 tablets Lifebuoy toilet soap in oiled silk sponge bag will not reach you for some months tho the Red X wrote me last week that it had been censored & would be despatched immediately. Goodbye now love & all our love & thoughts & prayers as always.

May 22nd
Johnnie my dearest,
It seems simply ages since you were here. It is curious how quickly time slips back, so that your leave seems like a lovely dream, and dreary reality without you stretches hopelessly ahead. However we lived through six or seven weeks before, & we can doubtless do it again.
Nothing very important has happened since you left. I collected my Savings Group money last night, and wrote up my diary, and so far today have been occupied with the washing. Frances has suddenly learnt how to clap hands and now does it with glee.
[page break]
The lessons to be read up in connection with the first two Agricultural papers are
1 [encircled] Farming Year, chaps I & II.
2 [encircled] Farming Year chaps VI
+ Agriculture Year Chap III of Bk I.
I've just discovered that Frances has cut two teeth while nobody has been looking. They are on the top jaw & towards the back, leaving one or two spaces between them & the front ones. She is now crying preparatory to going to sleep. I'm going up to The Town Hall this afternoon to try to get our new ration books.
I [underlined] did [/underlined] enjoy your leave, every minute of it & was particularly thrilled that we can now share our enjoyment of music as well as of so many other things. I'm looking forward to getting the first letter from you.
God bless you, my dearest, and keep you safe.
Always yours Ursula
