April 16th
Dear All Well here we are once more all happy + Bright. There has been a sudden change in the weather this week and it is very warm. I havn't received the parcel you sent off in January yet but hope that when it does arrive there will be some summer clothes in it. Have not received any cigarettes this year but expect some are on the way also no books or games arrived as yet however must be patient. By the way one of my pals here has just gone home on repatriation, he was badly smashed up when he crashed a broken pelvis and legs. If you write him and suggest you maybe able to meet him he could let you know personally how we get on here—his address is W. R. METHVEN 17, ST JOANS ROAD EDMONTON LONDON N.9—He is a jolly good chap and I know you will like him—To day being Sunday I have put on my best bib + tucker it makes a change even though there is nowehre to go. Well at the end of the page again so Chin Chin Love to you all
John
