My dearest Ronnie,
I would like to say a word that you would very much like to hear me say – but I wont. I have been dashing around all day, and now it is supper time, and I did want to write you a nice long loving letter today. I’ve been to your house for tea, and since then I’ve had to fly up to the library to get Dad’s books. Hell, I’ve never had a minute. Damn, damn, damn, I don’t even have time to sit still and think of how much I love you. I am in a temper, I’m sweating. Curse.
Oh darling I’m so sorry about this. I would love you to phone me when you get back to Malton – Saturday night will you beloved? Nine or half past. In spite of scrap, I simply do adore you. All my love. Kay
