23 Jul 1943, W J Carrie's wartime diary
Primary tabs
Adored, I've been thinking of you all evening and I'm sure you have been thinking of me. 25 Years ago today - how I can picture the whole scene again - on the stairs and in Esther's sitting room - she was away getting the supper! Soon it will be THE day and it is a shame we can't be together. There is still just a slender hope as I hear we are going to Goa and not Lourenco Marques and I might be able to fly from India. But I fear it won't come true. But I really hope and believe that we'll be together for Christmas.
I am very tired tonight so I won't write more but just sit, play patience and think of you. Our allowance came in yesterday and I've been busy paying out today - 14,310 Yen.
So Goodnight Loved One. AIAW. BB.
