56 Brierley Rd., 22.1.43   4 p.m.         My Own Precious Darling, For the first time in nearly a year I am home without you and without hope of seeing you.   How empty it feels.   I am missing you more than ever Darling.   More than ever I thought I would miss anybody.    Somebody is just singing the “Twilight Waltz” on the wireless.   Have you heard it?   It reminds me of the night we met. Darling – since that night you have come to mean so much to me, more than ever I can put down on paper.   I agree with you – the day cannot come too soon when we shall actually belong to each other. If only this war would end.   To console myself however I have had out your old letters and they have taken me back through the months.   How they have made my heart ache. The letters you wrote me when we first met – you had so much patience with me then – the letters you wrote after our first few leaves together and t...

Home Forces Wednesday evening My Dear Grace, When no letter arrived again this morning I was beginning to think that you had decided to devote your life to nursing and forget about me altogether!   I needn’t have worried, however, for I see by your letter, which arrived this afternoon, that you faithfully wrote to me on Sunday and that if I want to blame anyone, I must blame the postal authorities for holding it up so long.

Here’s a bit that will interest you.   My pal & I were walking in the park here on Sunday evening when we stopped to listen to an open air meeting of the local Communist Party talking about a Second Front Policy.   Both my pal and I asked the speaker a question or two.   After the meeting a lance corporal came to me a...

G. H. N. Saturday 12 M.D.   My Darling, I expected a letter from you this morning but as one has not arrived I expect I shall receive one this afternoon. Now for a bit of good news.  I go on night duty tonight.  Yesterday, Kit went on night duty on Pay-Bed Wing and this morning Laughton was to go on but as she had only been on day duty for two months she went to Matron.  As a result of her interview with Matron I am going on.  I am so thrilled about it.  Not that I like night duty – I don’t – but the fact that I hope to get my nights off to correspond with your leave – just think – four weeks to-day and we shall be together again. I think that I might be going on Pay Bed Wing – I hope so. I went to the flicks yesterday to see “First of the Few”.  I have seen it before but Kit had not, so I decided to go with her as it is a good picture.   I am afraid that I have not much more time left as it is almost time to go back on du...
