I received my promised Tunic about three weeks ago, also a pair of gloves, which came in very handy cold nights.

The winter this year has been extremely fine down here. Quite a lot of rain but not as bad as usual.

We are kept busy with the cars lately since Conscription came in, running officers around to the different camps.

Dear mother I have nothing to say because you now just about what I am doing.

With love to the gang.

Your loving son Herbert.
