France 19/2/17

I've [here?] had several letter from home & feel a bit
ashamed for not having answered earlier - But yesterday
I recieved the tidings, glad tidings about old Dan -
- - By Jove, I'm simply overjoyed! - Just as I
know you are. It's the best news in years - it is simply
great. I'm not more than a big days march from
the house of his fiancee & I feel tempted to jump
a freight into that town, for a day, to make the
acquaintance of our future sister-in-law. I'll
bet she is a "bit of alright" as Dan would say, for
he's got excellent taste, has Dan.
But what beats me is the circumstances under which
it all happened! - the pre-arrangements & businesslikeness
of fit, which alone would have been enough to cause
failure where a Destrube is concerned, under ordinary
luck. & so I say "Three Cheers for Mme Beaurain"!
And he has to be in Boulogne (according to your
letters) last Saturday; I could have been to see him. Were
passes granted. Yes, it's grand news & I shall write
him right away.
Thanks for cough drops -De - glad to say my cold is much
better now. The feverishness has gone & I cough much less.
The cold spell has broken up & we now have ordinary
winter weather for which poor old Guy & Paul must by
very thankful - very best love - affectionately signed Georges

Dear Pumps
I forgot to say in my last letter that I was broke.
Have been so for quite a long time & have been living on
pay. I was'nt paid while in [Harfield?] & I am only paid
5 p here. I had thought it best to wait till I joined Guy
& Paul but I am doomed to be here for a long time
yet. Another chap from our tent is developing & I
expect he'll go to hospital tomorrow which will mean
another 3 weeks for us here (& more if another case breaks
out) oh hell! I cannot make a long letter of this, there is
nothing to say: Life in this isolation camp is one dead monotony
& I find I cannot for the life of me make anything of it.
Here is my new address: Pte. L.G.D. no 50512 2nd Royal Fusilers
Tent 53 - Segregation Camp A.P.O. 5.11 - BEF France - Georges -
