My darling Ronnie,

I can’t resist sending you another short letter. After all, I simply must thank you for yours which arrived this morning as a big surprise. I was quite sure you wouldn’t be writing – until later on anyway.

I’m looking forward to you ‘phoning some night. I expect I shall be in, as there is little to go out for these evenings. Just blackness!

I may go to the flicks tonight, although I am really not in the mood to see ‘Dawn Patrol!’ I feel it will be too grim for these days. I wouldn’t mind seeing it with you, but otherwise, I’m not sure I’d like to. I really want to see “Prison without Bars” at the Savoy, but Marj and Moué are going to a lecture on “Home Nursing”.

I shall really have to do something soon, honey. But I don’t feel like tying myself up in anything while there is a chance of seeing you now and again. Annie Clegg says I should have a shot at the Land Army. Anyway I am not going to do anything just now honey – except love you, and that is going to be an all time job – forever. But it isn’t a job. It’s a pleasure – a wonderful pleasure.

Must pipe down now, as you must visit the lavatory before you start the days work! Oh treasure, how I love you. Yours with kisses cuddles and caresses, Kathleen
