Letter from Roy Bruce to Helen Bruce

How are you
getting on, and how
is Lily ?

I hope you are
being a very good little
girl, and that you are

a great help to mummy .
Because you know
mummy wants a lot
of looking after just
now, and you are the
only one who can look
after her.

How is fat Jeremy ?
I suppose he is just
as fat as ever, and
spends most of his
time asleep in the
sun.

Have you started
paddling yet? It should
be nearly warm enough
by now.

I saw a great
whale the other day, it
was quite close to the
ship, and it blew such
a lot of water into the
air, and then ran
away as fast as it could.

Soon we shall be
seeing flying fish, &

if I can catch one I
will tie a letter to it's its
tail & send it flying
to you.

Good bye just now,
little girl, it may not
be very long before we are
able to have such fun
again.

Here is a fat kiss x.
for you and a purr for Jeremy .
With lots of love &
hugs from Daddy .
