Private Message to Lt R Vaisey

Expect I'll see you this afternoon at the training exercises, but who really knows until we're a bit further into all this. I've got to dance attendance on L S-P this morning. Have been up for hours, reading a mass of things she insisted will be necessary, but only bothered to send round last night. Suppose it's my own fault for not having got a day job they'd want me continuing in like yours. Then it would just be the weekend exercises and standing by for necessary call-outs.

At any rate, I've got full employment now as adjutant to Br   Cmdr Braithewaite. And, really, it may suit me. Who knows. Not especially the part where I start every day with Herself. Maybe she'll hatch the sprog soon? You'd know better than I do how close she is.

Say, if you've not got plans already, Susan and I would like to have you and Lizzie round here for drinks and supper this evening. Half-six. Well, assuming they let us limp away from this afternoon's business by then.
