CARTE POSTALE
12/11/16
Dear Everybody.
Still in the same old spot & doing the same old job. Am in receipt today of letter from Rothie dated 28th Sept. along with a few from Blighty but none from Kate. Have not heard from her for some time now, I am afraid they are pretty busy over there just now. At time of writing letter Charl had not left N.Z., I wonder what time he got away. I wrote to him to Egypt a few days ago hoping it would catch him on his arrival there, now I suppose it will get there before him. I noted what you had to say about the new next door neighbours re number of grown up men in the family. The sooner conscription is applied to them the better. I think we will need them out here yet. Fancy Andrew McNeil coming, about up to him to, absolutely no ties in the world. Heard a little more re transfer yesterday, & all is well with it, only the official machine moves slowly. Had Hargest up to dinner with me last night. Weather has been fine last 3 days, time too. Affect Brother E.S.McI.
