Dear Bet,

Just a line, hoping you are well.

Thanks for the photos which are very nice.

We had a good Xmas & I am still in bed though there is very little wrong with me.

I am enclosing a little booklet which some of the local ladies distributed on Christmas morn.

Last night we heard George Edwards & Inspect. Scott over the radio. I had not heard them since civie life. It was peculiar.

I do hope Mum is back now & everything is O.K. again.

Bob went out yesterday to a Convalescent Camp.

Now, Bet, Cheerio & be a good girl.

Lots of Love,

Bruce.
