p.

was quite cheap - 150 piastres, which is 30/.
I must not write much, because this
is going Air Mail - but I shall finish
a long letter within 3 or 4 days & this
may arrive together. Also, I have to
write you two more letters, to go
with Christmas presents, which I am
sending to you separately, for safety.
One is a lovely piece of Egyptian
silk which I have had made into
a dressing gown for you. And the
other is a pair of knickers & a
petticoat, & two pairs of stockings.
These are too heavy to air mail.
But I want to tell you, Barbara
dearest darling, that after being married
for five years, I love you more
than I ever thought possible - I just
worship you, my sweetheart. You have
been sweet & wonderful to me
