never be penalised in that way. I love & adore & admire
you, & without any reservations - & I shall tell you
& tell you again, & if you tell me to stop I will
not stop - & if you are cross I will kiss you - & if
you are still cross - or even if you are not - I shall
pick you up & put you on our big new sofa, or
carry you up to bed, & take off none or some
or all of your clothes - & hold you & love you.
I love you darling - with my mind & heart & my
eyes & my body. You are beautiful to me & you
always have been & always will be - & apart from
me, you are beautiful. And you have so much
more, as well as beauty - interest & intelligence
& charm & attraction & manners & technique &
allurement - & you have a complete spell over
me. Darling, I love you very much.

Goodnight my angel. Write to me as much
as you can please - & tell me all you can
about yourself - how you love me, & what
we are going to do when I come home.

Love to Maxie & a big kiss for him.
And so much love to you, my lovely
sweetheart. Kisses & kisses, everywhere

Your own Harry

And I am NOT idealising you, Mrs Barbara
