with my answering i guess i will try to kill two birds with one stone by answering both together well i guess i cant kick about the mail this time 1 dont know what i am going to do with it all i got 17 letters and 7 parcels in one day and a couple more letters the next day i am back in england now and can buy most anything i want and for socks and sweaters and things i have more than i know what to do with at the present time if ever 1 find im in need ill soon let you know well i guess you are wondering what i think of england well in spite of the airraids and what have cu i think it is a real paradise after what we went through in ice- luiui i just came back from a seven lays leave and i travelled from one coast to the other south to north south to north dont let anyone ever say anything to you against the english people because i dont think i ever saw the likes before and dont ever expect to again they are simply grand i went up to a place called ashington about 30 niles north of newcastle with jimmy taylor who used to live there 14 years ago our trip through the country was wonderful it took about 14 hours each way by train while coming through london on our way back it took us about four hours trying to get the proper con nections back to our own barracks that of course was due to the air raids which are taking place every night and while travelling through the tubes there were thousands of people men women and children all over the place seeking shelter from the bombing it sure is a pitiful sight and mind you this takes place every night not just once in a while so once more i say take off your hat to the english they sure have the spirit that will win this war i know the villages towns and cities in canada will be lit up for miles but here in england or scot land no matter where you go in london you bump into one another hope everyone is well as i am now that i can take off my heavy underwear keep your chin up i dont think it can last very long
