Dear Aunt Myrt

I haven't written in quite some time, but I'm usually late with my letters anyhow.

I'm back in England on leave, at present in London but I hope to get up to Scotland yet, before I left Holland I sent you a souvenir from there. And while I was in Calais France I [?} two days on my way over here I picked up some French perfumes which I will send along as soon as I can.
How's everything back on the [?] Howie was telling me he'll be up for a week this summer.
I read in our paper not long ago when they are trying to blow Halifax up again fine thins.

Well Aunt Myrt I'll write again soon until then
Bye
