Dear Alec
Another p.c! Please tell Mother I will write in a day or as I return C’s letter. Hope my last one reached you. We have very cold weather here frost, snow but it is fine so we don’t mind. Have a good fire on and we make hot drinks (when there is something to make it with)

Hope all are well


Love from Tom

Dear Mother

Just a p.c. to say all is well and we are not yet blown away, drowned or lost in the mud. I had a letter from Cadoux to say he will be in Plymouth soon and will call. Will write in a day or two.

Dear Mother

Thank you very much for your letter and enclosures. I will send them back in course of day or two. It is very wet here and all trenches are in a slippery state. Don’t forget that parcel. Have a rotten cold, hope all are well at home. Please send a small towel as mine is burnt!

Best Love

Dear C.

This is a picturesque view of one town that is not hit. We have been out of the trenches for some time but returned yesterday. All detail in letters which will follow. Hope you are well
