Dear Allan, Lorna & Girls,
Well I received your letter today – your new house sounds
spooky – I wonder if Debbie will come to visit you after she reads your letter.
Daddy is 100% fit , he had the skin cancer removed at Dr
Hampshire’s it took over an hour to remove it plus the 3 warts on his head. He is busy making a lovely
black wood server – it really is a beautiful piece of furniture & Jenny has
bought it for R300.00 – so if we canary on like that we will be OK.
Daddy will
get a War Veterans Pension of plus – minus R250.00 then we get R250 from Ronald
& Les & I hope to get a disability pension & if I do we will
definitely be all right.
Lionel is going to pay the telephone account and Ronald
& Leslie will have to take Elliot & Beselina & also pay the lights
and water the others aren’t in a positon to help us – but it doesn’t matter as
we will go to Jenny’s once a month for about a week & also go to Neal’s, so
you must not worry about us as all is well. I am also doing quite a lot of
sewing & have quite a few orders & I have sold quite a lot of stuff already, we also have a
few thousand rand in the bank, which we didn’t want to touch in case we need it
later on.
I feel very sure that I am going to win enough money for Dad
& I to come over for a long holiday
– I am entering a lot more competitions this week again, also out of the Your
Family – hence the missing pages for your magazine.
Neal, Vanessa & boys
spent a week here & only left this morning so peace reigneth……………………………………………………………………..............................................
We had a lovely Easter the weather was too perfect – we went
to Midmar on Sunday for the day & we really had a lovely day – the boys
skied all day long & I swam with the
children………………………………………………………………………………………………......
Sheila & Ronald & family are well……………………………….......................................……………
Daddy has just gone to work only & more days thank
goodness. I can’t tell you how pleased I will be to have him home at nights in
future. Just hope I can get as much sewing done when he is around.
We leave Wednesday night after work for Jenny’s then onto
Maureen’s the next day for Patrick’s wedding – we will stay with the Hayes for
about 10 days & hope to see Uncle John & Aunty Fay , also we will call
on the Pages & sleep the night there
too so we will be gone for about 2 weeks altogether.
Well my bed is calling & I hear funny noises in the
lounge thank goodness Ronald will be here soon
Tons
of love all
Dad,
Mum & family
