Dear Di,
Martha's baby was born last month. Eliana. I'm thinking that maybe John doesn't come back for a while... I Don't think I can handle a boy on top of the racket. Finn, Isiah and Lilianna prance about all hours of the night. I caught Finn and Isiah singing in the garrison for a pint, the cheeky bastards. I gave him a clip round the ear for each of them, don't you worry. Jayden's actually written to you but she keeps getting them sent back because they're written in Portuguese. Shifts have been till late recently and the communists are getting tired out. A lot of the meetings are just us women now. Jessie Eden's boy came back last month and was destroyed. John's sent word that Danny is destroyed too. So many of our boys... Jayden's response will be here in English as the sodding police won't let it through.

Dear Di,
I'm still pissed at you but I'm getting married to Paul. When you come back, marry Antonio... He's been asking for you. I've heard from my parents that he beat up that Pedro boy who said that nasty stuff about you. I feel awful for being such a bitch all these months. Will you ever forgive me ?
From Jayden
