DEAR DOROTHY, Two days ago I received an airgraph dated 23rd Feb. and a letter dated 12th Jan from you so here goes for a few lines in reply. I have just written one of these to Mum, in reply to a letter I got from her on the same day. So you have heard my broadcast, I am afraid I have forgotten what I said now. Tell Tenny Russell I was asking for him next time you see him. I had an airgraph from Cecily Wills (Begg’s) two days ago. Tenny’s wife was working with her. I am afraid I haven’t got much news to give you just now as I haven’t seen any sign of Barney, Cecil or Jack Fox yet, I am still doing nothing. I should have a note from Jock any day now. You seem to be a bit of a race fiend now watch out you don’t lose all your wages. How are Frances & Stuart doing, I must write to them as soon as I get a chance, I may have more news for you by then, will say cheerio just now old dear. Lots of love x kisses. Your loving brother. ERIC xxxx
