G.H.N. 25-8-43 My Own Darling, I thought that I would start writing this to-night but as it is nearly time for lights out I doubt whether or not I shall get it finished. Your letter dated August 10 th arrived yesterday. I was getting a bit worried as I had not heard from you for about a fortnight. It was a relief to get your letter and to know that you are keeping safe and well. I was glad to hear that my letters are reaching you alright. I am pleased to say that I am back on duty again.

Look after yourself, Darling. I have not much news for you from this part of the world. Life is pretty much the same. I am settled down to hospital routine once again. In fact, I feel that my recent holiday is part of a dream now. I feel that I have not been away from the place for two minutes.
