Dear Folks:

Just a note to send the draft back. It came the other day - after I had written last. I didn't know the draft was coming direct to me so I wrote the bank in London. I'l register it so that it won't go astray. No I haven't any earthy use for that amount of money over here. I could get it cashed over here easily enough but I don't need it at all so Im sending it back. Many thanks for the trouble you have went to. I hope you haven't needed it while it has been travelling around.

We're having a re-union of our old B'n in a town near here tomorrow night. We're each contributing four francs to the funds so aught to have a little to eat & smoke. I'll tell you how it will come out. I won't be able to see Feurt or Chuck or Burnie as they aren't in my division and so wont be likely to hear of it.

Things are going fine & dandy. I haven't rec' the photos yet. I don't know what happened them but I hope the turn up soon. "Hen" has got his & they are fine.

This is all for now. I'll write about our bun feed later

Lots of Love Bill
