after demobilization it will probably be a couple of weeks or even more before I can get a passage back, or rather until the repatriation board find one for me.
Among the officers here I found young Beasley a son of the E&N Railway manager. He is now a captain in the R.A.F. having been a full "loot" in the R.N.A.sS a year ago. He tells me that Kenneth Macdonald is now a Major in the R.A.F. and has a job in London somewhere.
I am feeling rather fed up and tired this evening so think I will go off to bed. There is nothing to do here but eat, read, play cards or billiards or sleep and I have done all but the last, so will start early and get lots of it.
Good-night, dear people, don't expect me till I cable I'm coming though I hope to make it soon. Love to you both as ever.
Howarth.
