Letter 18

9 April [May] 1945

At the office

Darling-

Just a very short note to say I’m sending you, first class, a copy of our U-E edition and also a couple of clippings which may or may not interest you.

Have had a very busy day today - but a good one, for I got 3 letters from you, dated 30 April (our anniversary, by the way) and 2 written on 1 May. I shall answer them later, for there is too much milling about in this office at present for any sort of concentration, however feeble mine may be.

I hope you have gobs of letters from me this time – it irkles me to no end that you’re not getting mine. I’d rather have you get it and I get none.

Got to dash off and eat dubious chop suey with Nana - Please be good and careful and keep thinking of how awfully much I love you, stinky - Your Emil
