Dear Sarah, Thank you very much indeed for your share in my parcel, also for your letters. I was pleased to hear all are well and that the aunts liked the lace. My parcels are most acceptable now as I can assure you we do not live half as well as we did before - no more chicken and champagne - worse luck! I wish we could only pay a visit to our little farm near the wood! The best we can get here is chips and eggs and I think the Belgians believe we eat nothing else in England.
I've just written to Joe to try to fix up a day with him. I can get a pass all right, I think, so it only rests with him. I can't go right over to where he is, so I'm suggesting meeting him about half way. I hope he can get off, because I think I could give him a good time because I know the place very well, having been here for a few weeks when we first came out here.
Billie owes me a letter. I'm going out with another Sergeant this afternoon for a walk into the nearest town. It is not much of a place but I think we shall manage to get something there.
I hope Mother is keeping better. I was sorry to hear she had another attack. I hope all are well and that I shall soon be able to see you all again.
Love to all John.
