This afternoon I will go a bit of shopping and have an early night as I leave at 7.30 in the morning for Arras.

This "we" I have been using thought this later refers to different people. One a guide and there on the trip around Paris was also another Australian and his wife and they were to be in the party yesterday the other fell sick and could not go and has gone to England today.

That is all the news I think so will close up hoping all well and that I have not bored you too much that this long account of places visited but I will want this on return to tell you all the things I have seen.

I have not had any mail from you for some time but that is my fault as I told the Wales to keep my mail until I return from Paris so will get some I hope on Friday when I return

love to all.

Gordon.
