My own dearest darling,
I have sent you 5 letters during the last 17 days -
all 8 page, 10* ones, in the hope that they will arrive
more regularly. The last one was posted off this morning
& here I am beginning another one to you. I seem to have
lost the faculty of reading at the moment--and have
quite got over my skill of being more sociable. All I
want to do is think about you & write to you. But I
have nothing new to say. I'm afraid- at least not of any
real importance or special interest. I do hope my letters
are still satisfactory & satisfying.
I have a new system now, which I quite enjoy-especially
since I began early morning P.T. again. And that is to
have my breakfast in my room & during this , is the
cigarette which I have with my second cup of coffee. I
read one of your letters, which I am now going through
again only backwards. It is a very pleasant feeling & gives
me a sensation of having a letter from you every day.
And also, I wonder if the supply will hold out until I
leave for home. I read No 7th this morning. I would
love to think that I shall be on a boat for home
before I come to no. [ ]
Another thing, which is extremely annoying, is that I have
started again that horrible crotch rash which I had in
Haifa last year. So my privates & around & about are
painted brilliant green again but I am hoping that this
time it will be cleared up in a few days. At least, it
can be guaranteed that I do not bring such a business home
with me. I had no case of it during the winter
months. It is only the last few days of heat which
have started it again.
