I wrote to the Unit about the £5.10.0. you said you’d left in your locker, & had a reply to say only £3 had been found & credited to you. The officer in charge is very perturbed & asks you to confirm the amount and describe exactly where you left it. By the time he gets a reply via me from you it will be a bit late to institute inquiries - but still!
I’m pining for a letter from you, haven’t heard for three weeks. I hope we get your p.o.w. number soon so that we can start sending books etc.
All flourishing this end & thinking of you constantly. All my love,
Ursula.

Friday a.m. July 10th/42
My dear Douglas.
The days just pass away & by the time you receive this letter you will have been O.H.U.S. for three years. If we call the time from your entry into R.A.F.V.R. it is now well over three years since we were all very much surprised to learn that you were suffering from blood pressure. We have all travelled widely along the path=way of life since then & always I am asking myself “why”? There must have been many – very many – lessons to be learnt by the way & one, at any rate, that of patience, has been thoroughly assimilated. Always we are just waiting & hoping for peace & glad reunion again. The summer ? days are passing quickly away & this morning there was a real touch of Autumn in the air. Always I am wondering how things are with you. No doubt these past four months (since your last letter to us was written) March 11th) will have been hot – far too hot for comfort tho’ you were hopeful that the construction of your “lodgings” would afford comfort & coolness when the hot weather did arrive. We have had very little real summer weather – not many days warm enough to be without fire & sit out-of-doors but we are hoping that the summer may be
[page break]
prolonged into Autumn like last year. Last Saturday I sent your annual subscription to the Old Mancunians Association. Have not yet got the receipt but as you probably remember they don’t do things in a hurry there. The July edition of Ulala & the annual report arrived together a few days ago but there does appear to be any news of your contemporaries. Instead of the full list of members in the annual report is the full list of O.H. service roll. John’s name does not yet appear but following the news given to you in my last (or recent) letter I expect to find it in the next edition of Ulala. Mrs Clayton told me last week when I called that she had received a letter from you about 3 weeks ago. It must have been 3 months. You wrote to me in January & said you were writing her & John. In common with another well-known personage “my patience is nearly exhausted.”
We were hoping to be able to send you more snaps this summer but cannot buy films. We have tried so many times & always receive the same answer “films unobtainable.” We have not yet got this month’s edition of the “Prisoner of War” published on the first of the month. No doubt it is wandering around Salford way as the first two were in spite of the fact that very many letters have been sent from this address & Dad is officially registered as next-of-kin from this address. Now I am going to buy my week’s joint but poor stuff just now. Not a bit like you long for. We gave the last steak to the cat next door. Always all our love & prayers. Mother & Dad.

My Dear Folks,
Your birthday greetings arrived in good time. In fact about a week ago. During last few days have received Gwen’s 23/4, Ma’s 21/4, Pa’s 26/4. I shall be pleased to receive the hold-all & birthday present. I shall have much to make up to you for when I return. How are the mushrooms & cucumbers getting along in the frames? I wish I could be there to help & the eating of them. I don’t think I have seen a mushroom for years! Please congratulate Pauline on my behalf. Rodney Rockingham, Blake certainly ought to make the “grade” for the navy. Your Affectionate Son Alan.

My Dear Folks,
Just a line to let you know that I have received a host of letters this month (36 to date) & that I shall be writing again before November to acknowledge them all. I was grieved when I heard of Bill’s misfortune & would like you to pass on my condolences to poor Barbara. – I will write to her as soon as I hear that all is well with the baby. The news of Basil is a great relief – please send him my love. Hoping that you are all well & that we shall be together before 1945. I remain Your Affectionate Son, Alan.

My Dear Folks,
Please send me some more photographs sometime. I would like a shall on of “Hollingworth” etc etc. The last one which you sent of Peter came through OK. Suppose by now Bill will be a happily married man. Gwen tells me Pa is working too hard again. – I think this is very foolish, he should go away for a holiday. Recent letters Pa’s Dec 8th, 19th & Ma’s Jan 1st, 24th Gwen’s Jan 22nd Sorry this postcard is such a jumble, will write again in about 10 days. Please give my kindest regards to all. Your Affectionate Son Alan

My Dear Folks,
Just a little note to add to my requests. I would like some cigarettes, and also a tooth brush. I am just about through my socks, which have already been washed about 10 times. With regard to my request concerning that girl, I would like Mrs Sutton to write – no one else. It is a point of tact.
all for now

My Dear Folks,
Have just been reading thru old letters & find I have not answered many of your questions. The shorts are excellent, & are now giving a service which should long outlast my POW life. The [indecipherable word] in my last parcel but one is excellently made, & has also been very useful. [indecipherable word] received “Lyall’s Languages of Europe” yesterday & sends sincere thanks. I have recently received two P.S.’s which are very interesting one with advert in back by some Chemist “Green” in Coventry. K regards to staff. Grandma’s both. Your Affectionate Son Alan.

My Dear Folks,
I received Ma’s letter of 5/4 & Pa’s letter of 10/4 several days ago. I see the mail situation is definitely looking up. I must congratulate Pa on the part he played in the Earlsdon team. I am rather pleased to hear that if Gwen is bound to do something, she intends to embark upon the midwifery & children branch. It is about the best thing she could do & may mean that she will be able to live at home. Ma the only photograph which I have is one which is so inaccurate that it may frighten you. Will send a decent one as soon as possible. Your affectionate Son Alan

My Dear Folks,
Pa’s 8/3/44 Ma’s 8/3/44 & 18/3/44 all arrived together about 10 days ago. Pa mentions that he has just been planting lettuces & hopes that I may be home before he plants the next lot. – I just don’t dare to contemplate any alternative. I enter into my second year of P.O.W. life in a few days. My Feb parcel arrived about 2 weeks ago. It was quite intact & extremely welcome, though I think you ought to make the May on the last. Please give my congratulations to Barbara & Bill Bushill at appropriate moment. Yr Ever Loving Son Alan

My Dear Folks,
My first clothing parcel has just arrived. It is excellent. A really fine XMAS present. among other things it contained 1lb of chocolate, half of which has already been dispensed with. Apparently the Br R X. deemed It necessary to remove the razor & blades. The razor does not matter, but I would welcome a few blades & a shaving brush in a later parcel. I am very fit and am receiving your letters regularly. Please give my love to all & keep smiling – Writing again next week
Your Affectionate Son. Alan.

My Dear Folks,
I have a little surprising news for you today. I think you will remember the Corbishleys who were at Swallows at the same time as myself: well, Peter arrived here yesterday having been captured by the Germans after the fall of Italy. I would be grateful if you could convey this news to his people together with assurances that he is well & much the same as ever. He has been a P.O.W in Italy since ’41 & it is possible that his people have had little or no news of him during the recent [censored word] period in that country. Writing again soon.
Love, Alan

My Dear Folks
I had only just posted my letter yesterday when I received two letters from you. (First 2) The first one came through quite OK, and I was pleased to get all the news – I never knew I had so many friends that you should be snowed under. I am jolly pleased to hear that you have had a short holiday, - and if it has put 10 yrs on Pa’s expectation, take him away again at XMAS, and make it 20 yrs instead. Pleased to hear Bas OK, tell him we’ll make some of the Chemists sit up when we get back again. Glad you got my things OK. Go right ahead on the C&D arrangements, & I’ll have a crack at it. Cannot send much more mail this month – so don’t worry Love to all Alan.

My Dear Folks
This is my last card for August, I have been keeping it in case I should hear from you but have not as yet done so. the things I have so far requested you to send are, [underlined] razor, blades, T. Brushes & paste. My oldest uniform [/underlined] (F/O tapes to be put on sleeves) some [underlined] blue shirts, shoes, ties, underpants, my flat topped hat [/underlined], and my [underlined] greatcoat [/underlined] can follow when you find it possible to send it. I would also like you to send me a few parcels of cigarettes, and medical comforts, such as horlicks, ovaltine, etc & other body-building foods. I think that any chemist can pack these, & have them forwarded to the Red X All for now, Hope to hear from you soon. Your loving Son Alan.
