Transcript
  • Enclosure – Letter from Catherine Nicholson Erinfa, Harlech, W. Wales Sept 2nd. Wed. Dear Father, I was so happy to be able to speak to you for the first time since you went to Spain. I will see you then, on Wed 9th unless you think that that will mean too short a time for me to stay in London. I will have to go back on the 15th to Sutton Veny as I have to get my school things in readiness for the 18th. I am so looking forward to seeing Sam and David this afternoon as it is so infernally dull without them. Last night it was very funny when the wireless was switched on to very vulgar comedy. Grandmother looked up suddenly and said “Is that English?” thinking that we had got on to a foreign station. I am awfully excited about Jenny and the probability of jobs. I will ask David what he knows about them. We had lovely weather up here for a few days but now that the boys are turning up it turns unpleasant again. Love to Laura. Love to all XXXX Love from Catherine.XXXX
