much holiday we can have - thank goodness when we don't call
it leave any more - & when I must start work.
And then will come the terrific problem of finding a
place & a house in which to live. I expect we shall
do something of a temporary nature - & look for perfection
at our leisure. There is no limit at all to ones
thoughts & ideas about this.
Sunday 13 July. You asked me in one of your recently arrived
letters, to tell you about the country - the towns & the
lives & so am. Well, it seems I have told you quite a
lot from time to time in my letters, & when I go
away anywhere, I try to tell you as much as possible
of what Ihave seen. I do wish I could go away more
& see more - but it is always so difficult to get away,
there is the trouble too of who to go with. If only poor
Frank had came up here with me, we could have
done & seen so much together, & enjoyed ourselves too.
Ben Amis is a good little man & v. interesting too
but it is a little difficult going off work with somebody
who calls you "Sir" all the time - & it is a shade

bit askance, I think Ben is my favourite! It's a
bit schoolboyish, isn't it?
Jerusalem I have hardly seen at all, as each of the three
times I was there, I was in a rush. Once, I arrived
in darkness & left again at 8'0 in the morning -, the
other times, I just drove straight to H.Q & then away
again. The impression I got was of a large modern
city, with first class roads & pavements & shops &
hotels & cinemas & so on. All these modern
