My dear Dodie;

As you complain so bitterly of my vile writing, I am taking to getting out of the difficulty in the same way as you do, only the machine is very old and rotten. I am sorry that I have not written for so long, but I have been up to my eyes in work, chiefly of the office kind, which goes sorely against the grain as I did not join the Navy to become a clerk. I hope that my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty were nice and polite to you when they replied. I cannot understand what has become of my photographs as I have sent you two now, however I shall try once again. Perhaps the censor thinks that they may be too much of a shock for you to stand. Yor own has not yet turned up, but I am living in hope that it may before long.
