Thursday.

My darling Ronald,

It is a damp and dirty day, but am I troubled? No, because I love you, and I shall soon be able to tell you so – in person.

These poor fools staying on here, and I am going to be so happy going home with you. I think I shall burst in my effort to thrust today and tomorrow behind me.

I think your idea of going on the cross hills is a very good one, and will suit me fine.

I would like to see “The Four Feathers” as I missed it – just – at the Odeon. Besides it’s nearer than Skipton, and I suppose you will have to go easy with petrol?

This place is right on the main Leeds to York road – so you wont be able to miss it. Come up the front drive, and I’ll be waiting for you.

I shant be really content till I’m on my way home. I hope it’s a lovely day – but it will be a lovely day with you there in any case.

I wonder what sort of mucking about we’ll be doing today. Anything that will fill in the time will do for me.

Don’t forget to leave me room for my case and hat box. It’s a big ungainly, unlovely case of Mum’s.

Well, it’s time I dressed for the days work. I don’t think I’ll write tomorrow honey.

All my love – and it’s nearly Saturday, Kisses cuddles caresses, Kay
