From Bill in Wheatley. Bill thanks Hella for her letter which he got yesterday. He writes he cannot send ‘real’ English money as that is illegal but has enclosed three postal orders for £1 each. He is delighted Frau Sender lent Hella money and asks to be remembered to ‘them all’. He writes that she looks wonderful in her photographs and not at all old [it would seem that Hella thinks this]. He asks when she bought ‘that bloody pullover!’ and who the man standing next to her in the canteen is. With envelope. For a press cutting originally attached to the letter, see P14/6/2/5.

He asks if she needs any more money and encourages her to hurry over to England. She has said she will come in the middle of July. He sends his regards to her mother and ‘all the rest’.

From Bill at CML, Nicosia. Bill writes he has not replied to Hella’s letter for so long for two reasons: firstly, her letters are startling and take a while to recover from; secondly, they have been busy with an increase in terrorist attacks and a huge fire which caused many casualties. As he writes the letter a colleague has remarked that the tour abroad has caused him to look ten years older. In reply to her question he did not take, touch or recall seeing her [testimonial] folder in Egypt nor does he think his friend Paddy took it. He suggests she contact Alice in London about it. He tells her that he is pleased that she is both well and happy. He signs off with love and sends regards to her mother.
