I know you will be pleased to hear my Uncle has got his leave he arrived here late Wednesday night so I was able to be with him all yesterday afternoon but it upset me terrible when he said goodbye as it reminded me so much of the time when you had to go back, but he told me to be brave dear as you would all soon be home.
