Dear Billie Thanks very much for you letter of 2/3/44
which I got last month. I'm glad to hear that you
& Frank are living on the farm at last, & that you
like it. I was sorry to hear in a letter from Bill, that
you had a lot of rain while striping, I hope it did
not do to much damage. Give my regards to Frank,
& I hope _xwe will meet again before very long. Cheerio
Billie with Love from

Dear Mother & Dad I have just been watching two
international rugby matches, the first Australia. V.
N.Z. & the second S. Africa. V. Scotland. Our team
is not very good because there is not very many
Aussies in this camp, & a most of the one's that are here
are Victorian's & not many of them play rugby. It was
a good ^game to watch & N.Z.  won 10pts. to 0. The second game
S. Africa should have won, there is a lot of them in
the camp & nearly all them are rugby players, but Scotland
played a very good game & it ended as a draw with the
score 3pts. all. I have not had much mail lately, only one
from you Dad dated 16/4/44 which I got on 23/6/44, I ^am glad to
hear that Bill had a good long time at home & hope he
enjoyed himself, & I'll bet he did!!!. There is one old chap
in the room with us who gets on our nervs a lot on the
subject of mail, nearly every day a few letters come into
the room, if there is none for him he growls & grones about
never getting any mail. The annoying thing about it
is that he gets as much as anyone in the room &
more than a lot of us. We all look forward to getting
letters & are very pleased when we get them, but we
dont mone _xwhen we dont get them. I'd like to know how
he'd get on if he had to go without for two year's.
as we had to. Sillie is'nt it, I gess we are not very
tolerent. I'm glad Jack _xwas able to _xsell the shop, what did he get.
Cheerio Best Love to all
from Red
