Dear Mat and Florrie,
At last I am answering your letter, so sorry I have not done so before. We were very glad to get your letter and to know that Baby is so much better, let us hope he has seen the last of his illness poor little chap. It was very kind of you to send the peas, also the potatoes, which we received yesterday. Father said I was to thank you very much for them. The peas are planted so they will be ready by the time your holidays (How's that Fred? You like peas don't you.) Glad to say that Mother is well, she was very pleased with the poultry book and flowers, by the way, what kind are they.
When do you think of having your holidays, it quite cheered Mother up to know you were coming this time. Perhaps I shall be home then as they are moving our Headquarters to Worthy Down and they want me to join the "Mobile Section" of the R.A.F. that means signing for four years or duration of war, and I shall be liable to be sent to France.
Otherwise it's a good job and they have promised to remuster me as "Telephonist Clerk" if I will stay. That means 38/- a week and uniform, but I don't think Mother really likes me to sign and I don't know that I'm particularly keen to go to the Front. The fact is I don't really know what to do, what do you think.
I saw Florrie Grey on Sat, but not to speak to, she is very altered, looks quite a middle aged woman, enough to make his too poor girl, Eastleigh isn't a bit like it used to be. Mabel Pristnall was buried last Saturday. Rather a lively sort of a letter this but perhaps I shall have something more exciting by the next time I write.
Must close now with love to all from us all.
From,
Yours affectionately,
Mary
