Dear Mother:
I hear that Mrs. Buxton has been in to see you again. I'm sorry but I haven't been to London yet so haven't run across Kenneth.
I will send a picture to Mrs. Cargill as soon as possible.
Frank Mills of whom your neighbour spoke - he went to Reading but evidentially wasn't right type as he never saw service with R.A.F. I met him in London just before he returned to Canada. He never wore the uniform.
We have had amazing weather this month - and have flown every day.
Got a letter from Bob and a picture of him on horseback taken at Little Chicago.
I am putting on weight again and getting back to real shape. Glad to hear that Dad had such a good holiday.
Yes Jennie was ill when I was in Winnipeg - too bad I didn't have time to stop off and see her.
Summer shall soon be here and I am anxious to start swimming. There is grand sport in the River Swale here.
As I have said before, the scenery here in the Yorkshire Moors is grand with wonderful valleys and rivers.
I am running two letters together so won't say much in this one.
Love Bill
