From Melbourne (Mum) : 19.11.83

From Melbourne
19.11.83

Dear Alan,
                                Yesterday we received a letter about your renewal of your Dental registration in Victoria. It doesn’t matter whether you are in Victoria or overseas but they have sent you a form to be filled in. it has to be paid by 31st Dec. We could guess the answers but it would help if you could tell us how many hours on an average you work each week.

                What is the main sort of work that you do?

                Also what type of practice i.e. where you work and who pays you.
                If you let us know soon we will fix up the renewal.

                I think Beverley was a little disappointed you didn’t send her some little thing for her birthday. She has written a poem about you in Africa but she won’t let me read it I just saw it by chance. I think she would like just some little thing that is African maybe a book of stones by black Africans if there is such a thing. She was pleased when Pamela sent her a book by a Canadian woman writer. It needed be a book but just something from Africa different from what she can get here. Last week we had another form but you didn’t have to fill it in because you were overseas It was a general survey of dentists in Australia to see how much work they did and what sort of work. It seemed to be trying to find out where there were too many dentists and where there were not enough but you didn’t have to fill it in.
                            
                    Love from mum
