Dear old wife,
Hope you have had my letters and the other cards I sent you I am waiting for our Sergeants Mexx Xmas card to come along to send you one of those if they don't come soon they will be too late to be any use, the third should be the charm so maybe next Xmas we can spend it together. Your old Hubbie Jack.
