Letters of David Francis Smith, January-June 1941 - Part 6

-4.
as yet, may go over the weekend & see what

they are like. Your memory must be a lot better

than mine, cant remember seeing ''Florian'' with
you & Mabel.
How is the tennis going, suppose you

would be able to find much else to do from

now on. I havnt had a game since the last

with you, would loike to get on to a few.

Am rather interested in this hair

business of yours will reserve my opinion until

I get a snap, I did like it the way it was,

who wanted the change.

Enclosing a few snaps, very good ones

too, taken around here, as yet I havent any

of yours truly, perhaps I'll have one or two

next time.

Cant find any news for the present then,

so I'd better close up.

"Cheerio"
With all my Love & Kisses

Frank xxxxxx

Regards to all at home.

My Darling Rene,

Received your most welcome

letter on Saturday, pleased to hear that

you & all at home are OK.

Things are still the same

here with us nothing startling happening.

The weather at present is getting very

humid must be getting on to the wet

season.

Many thanks for the Order

it was very much appreciated.  Up to date

I havent received any of your papers, perhaps

I'll get a few in the next boat mail.

Yes I'll say I was annoyed

about that letters must say I'm glad that

you received both my letters together, it

would help quite a lot.

Think I told you, you're letter

No. 12 arrived by the next mail.

Evidently it wasnt news, one

 

.4.

Am down to play a game of soccer this

afternoon, afraid I wont last very long, last

game I had was against the Artillery down

home, & the was a fair while ago.

Cant explain that John's Service business

on the envelopes, evidently something to do 
with with the Post Office.

You seem to have quite a few news

reels of stories in Malaya, don't think they

ever took up around these parts.

Well Sweetheart afraid I cant find

any news to tell you for the present so 

I'd better close up.

"Cheerio"

With all my Love & Kisses

Regard to Ma Pa & Mabel

My Darling Rene,

Just the usual to let you

know that I'm O.K. & still in the land of

the living, hope this finds you & all at home

in the best of health etc.

Had expected to receive

a letter from you on Tuesday but

was disappointed, also missed out

on the previous Tuesday thought

then that I'd get two in the Saturday,

but only one turned up, maybe I'll

get two this weekend, so seeing I

havent a letter to answer this lot

wont be so easy to write.

Things are still just the

same here with us, nothing startling

happening.

Had a fair sort of a trip

today over to a seaside place, was

very nice & a good break.
