£90 in 15 weks - which is £6 pm. But the leave in Cairo was
expensive - & I bought you some nice presents, which I loved
doing, and I hope they have or will arrive - & I had to buy
quite a number of clothes & bits of things, which added up. But
I seem now, to have settled down into a steady £3 to £3-10-0
p.w - which is not so bad. And of course, that includes
mailing & everything - except cables!
And I dont want to spend any more, if I can help it. If I have
to be away from you - I just want to work, & write to you, &
read as much as I can, & have a few drinks - preferably by
myself, unless I meet someone I really like - & I hope, see

which I have not played on yet. ther is a fine cinema, but
I have only been once - they have such tripy films. and the

of course. I expect I shall be telling you more about

excessively hot during the day - & they tell me, bitterly cold 6. p.6.
